    ..In contrast, similarity in HpHbR sequence among isolates of Tbg group 2 and Tbb/Tbr provides further evidence that human serum resistance in Tbg group 2 is likely independent of HpHbR function...

    Yale University School of Public Health, New Haven, Connecticut, USA
    Appl Environ Microbiol 78:4627-37. 2012
    ..It is imperative to note that these novel findings would have been missed if we had employed the standard univariate analysis used in previous studies. Our results are discussed in the context of disease epidemiology and vector control...
