Molecular characterisation of the plasmodium falciparum pfcrt gene involved in chloroquine resistance
Chloroquine (CQ) resistant P. falciparum was first reported in the 1960s at the Thai-Cambodia border. Gradually CQ resistance has spread and is found in all regions where P. falciparum transmission occurs. The emergence of CQ resistance due to excessive CQ selection pressure on the parasite populati...
