Abstract
⺠We model, for the first time, CCL3L1 copy number variation and susceptibility to malaria. ⺠Association analysis was performed using family-based methods in a Tanzanian population. ⺠We question whether malaria has shaped the current spectrum of variation observed at CCL3L1. ⺠We identify a weak association between CCL3L1 copy number and haemoglobin concentration.
