Contrasting Epidemiology and Genetic Variation of <em>Plasmodium vivax</em> Infecting Duffy Negatives across Africa

2020-12-08

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies indicated that Plasmodium vivax can infect Duffy-negative individuals, but the varied diagnostic and methodological approaches have limited our ability to characterize P. vivax across Africa. Here, we utilized a standardized approach to compare epidemiological and genetic attributes of P. vivax from Botswana, Ethiopia, and Sudan, where Duffy-positive and Duffy-negative individuals coexist. Among 1,2...
