Spatial distribution of Plasmodium vivax Duffy Binding Protein copy number variation and Duffy genotype, and their association with parasitemia in Ethiopia.

<h4>Background</h4>Duffy Binding Protein (PvDBP) binding to the Duffy antigen receptor for chemokine (DARC) is essential for Plasmodium vivax invasion of human reticulocytes. PvDBP copy number variation (CNV) might increase parasite invasion and thus parasitemia. We examined the spatial...
