Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plasmodium vivax malaria accounts for approximately 60% of malaria cases in Kolkata, India. There has been limited information on the genotypic polymorphism of P. vivax in this malaria endemic area. Three highly polymorphic and single copy genes were selected for a study of genetic diversity in Kolkata strains. METHODS: Blood from 151 patients with P. vivax infection diagnosed in Kolkata between April...
