Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Containing the spread of artemisinin (ART)-resistant Plasmodium falciparum will be assisted by improved understanding of its human-to-mosquito transmission. We compared gametocyte dynamics among field isolates containing K13 mutations conferring ART resistance and K13 wild-type parasites. In Pailin, Cambodia, the male to female gametocyte ratio was higher among K13 mutant infections compared to K...
