Rapid microarray-based method for monitoring of all currently known single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with parasite resistance to antimalaria... (Publications)
Parasite drug resistance is partly conferred by single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and monitoring them has been proposed as an alternative to monitoring drug resistance. Therefore, techniques are [...] false determinations by RFLP of mixed infections. The system is sufficiently sensitive to assay parasites in clinical malaria cases and in most asymptomatic cases, and it allows high throughput with minimal [...] Such a monitoring system also makes it possible to identify the reemergence of...
Monitoring chloroquine resistance using <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> parasites isolated from wild mosquitoes in Tanzania (Publications)
other reports of a decline of mutant parasites after a reduction of drug selection pressure but suggests that the fitness cost is high in mutant parasites. Typing parasite isolates from infected mosquitoes [...] suggest a biologic trend of decrease of CQ mutants and a subsequent increase of CQ susceptible parasites in circulation after the discontinued use of CQ in 2001 as a first-line drug in Tanzania. High

Amplified fragment length polymorphism mapping of quantitative trait loci for malaria parasite susceptibility in the yellow fever mosquito <em>Aedes... (Publications)
The yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti has been the subject of extensive genetic research due to its medical importance and the ease with which it can be manipulated in the laboratory. A molecular ge
