Linkage Map Linkage maps for P. falciparum have been developed from genetic crosses. Simple-sequence repeats pepper the genome, providing abundant simple-sequence length polymorphisms (microsatellites) capable of distinguishing different parasite lines. Microsatellite linkage groups corresponding to all 14 nuclear chromosomes have been identified and are being correlated with genome sequences and physical maps.
