Genetic diversity of chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium vivax parasites from the western Brazilian Amazon
The molecular basis of Plasmodium vivax chloroquine (CQ) resistance is still unknown. Elucidating the molecular background of parasites that are sensitive or resistant to CQ will help to identify and monitor the spread of resistance. By genotyping a panel of molecular markers, we demonstrate a simil...
