The contribution of Plasmodium falciparum genetic diversity to differentiate drug response in gametocytes

Late-stage gametocytes of P. falciparum parasites are responsible for the ongoing human-to-mosquito transmission of malaria disease. To block transmission, novel gametocytocidal compounds are required. It is thus important to determine ex vivo efficacy against diverse, contemporary clinical isolates...
