It was found in this study that 98.8% of the study participants who had malaria were infected with P. falciparum whereas 0.8% and 0.4% were co-infected with P. falciparum/P. ovale (Pf/Po), and multiple infection of P. falciparum/P. vivax/ P. malariae (Pf/Pv/Pm). This evidence concerns the gene PRB4 and infection.
