Proposed evolutionary tree for the development of antifolate resistance in malaria parasites. Solid arrows are the anticipated pathways by which antifolate-resistant mutants were developed. Dashed arrows indicate the pathways that are unlikely to have occurred in nature for reasons given in the text. Mutants surrounded by ellipses are naturally occurring parasites whereas those with square boxes have not been found in nature.
