BACKGROUND: Plasmodium falciparum genetic diversity can add information on transmission intensity and can be used to track control and elimination interventions. METHODS: Dried blood spots (DBS) were collected from patients who were recruited for a P. falciparum malaria therapeutic efficacy trial in three malaria endemic sites in Ethiopia from October to December 2015, and November to December 2019....
