Analysis of within-host evolution of Plasmodium Falciparum during treatment
Antimalarial drugs impose strong selective pressure on Plasmodium falciparum parasite genomes and leave signatures of selection. The evolutionary basis of drug resistant malaria in endemic and epidemic settings continues to remain an ongoing scientific priority whose solution carries a significant e...
