Sequencing large numbers of individual samples is often needed for countrywide
antimalarial drug resistance surveillance. Pooling DNA from several individual samples is …

Molecular surveillance for drug-resistant malaria parasites requires reliable, timely, and
scalable methods. These data may be efficiently produced by genotyping parasite …

The recent advances in next-generation sequencing technologies provide a new and
effective way of tracking malaria drug-resistant parasites. To take advantage of this …

Well-defined molecular resistance markers are available for a range of antimalarial drugs,
and molecular surveillance is increasingly important for monitoring antimalarial drug …

Genetic polymorphisms in P. falciparum can be used to indicate the parasite's susceptibility
to antimalarial drugs as well as its geographical origin. Both of these factors are key to …

Plasmodium falciparum is a protozoan parasite that causes the deadliest form of human
malaria. Although, malaria burdens worldwide have decreased substantially over the last …

The intensification of malaria control interventions has resulted in its global decline, but it
remains a significant public health burden especially in sub-Saharan Africa (sSA) …

ABSTRACT A major challenge to global malaria control and elimination is early detection
and containment of emerging drug resistance. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods …

“The datasets (fastq files) generated and/or analyzed during the current study are available
in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) repository under BioProject accession number …

Introduction Tracking the emergence and spread of antimalarial drug resistance is critical for
supporting progress towards the control and eventual elimination of malaria in South Asia …
