Genetic diversity of Plasmodium falciparum parasites from Kenya is not affected by antifolate drug selection

The genotypes of merozoite surface protein-1, merozoite surface protein-2 and glutamine rich protein are frequently used to distinguish recrudescence from reinfection when parasitaemia reappears after antimalarial drug treatment. However, none of the previous reports has clearly assessed the change...
