Parasite Population Dynamics Shape pfhrp2 and pfhrp3 Deletion Patterns in the Peruvian Amazon

2025-08-05

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> <italic>Plasmodium falciparum</italic> parasites with deletions of the <italic>pfhrp2</italic> and <italic>pfhrp3</italic> ( <italic>pfhrp2/3</italic> ) genes, involved in rapid diagnostic test (RDT) failure, have been increasingly predominant in the Peruvian Amazon since 2012. However, the evolutionary factors underlying this phenomenon remain unclear since HRP2-based RDTs hav...
