Spread of Artemisinin Resistance in Plasmodium falciparum Malaria

Elizabeth A. Ashley, +82 more
TL;DR: Prolonged courses of artemisinin-based combination therapies are currently efficacious in areas where standard 3-day treatments are failing, and the incidence of pretreatment and post-treatment gametocytemia was higher among patients with slow parasite clearance, suggesting greater potential for transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimizing Illumina next-generation sequencing library preparation for extremely AT-biased genomes.

TL;DR: A robust and optimized Next-Generation Sequencing library amplification method suitable for extremely AT-rich genomes and will greatly benefit sequencing clinical samples that often require amplification due to low mass of DNA starting material is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic architecture of artemisinin-resistant Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: Analysis of the fine structure of the parasite population showed that the fd, arps10, mdr2 and crt polymorphisms are markers of a genetic background on which kelch13 mutations are particularly likely to arise and that they correlate with the contemporary geographical boundaries and population frequencies of artemisinin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Plasmodium falciparum diversity in natural infections by deep sequencing

Magnus Manske, +78 more
- 19 Jul 2012 - 
TL;DR: Methods for the large-scale analysis of genetic variation in Plasmodium falciparum by deep sequencing of parasite DNA obtained from the blood of patients with malaria, either directly or after short-term culture are described.
