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.
