a
The results of the most-parsimonious generalized linear model explaining the increase in the frequency of pfcrt 76 mutant alleles between the gametocyte and sporozoite stages where the percentage of parasites harboring pfcrt 76 mutant alleles does not exceed 20% at the gametocyte stage. MOI, multiplicity of infection in the gametocyte population.
