Abstract excerpt

Analysis of the Plasmodium falciparum parasites circulating in the blood of infected persons frequently reveals the presence of two or more genetically distinct parasite populations. P. falciparum parasites cultured in vitro, from blood specimens collected in the field, are often used for biological, immunological, and drug-resistance investigations relating to the epidemiology in the area concerned or on the...
