   DNA World View

Malaria is endemic in 91 countries, confined to the tropics with extensions into the subtropics in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Molecular data of Plasmodium falciparum are known for 18 countries.

Data Collection
3945 DNA sequences from Plasmodium falciparum are available in GenBank.
A subset of 127 records (4%) includes the name of the country of origin of the parasite.

Data Analysis
Data are categorized by country and year of publication and are then associated with epidemiological data.

Surveillance
The map shows the countries (yellow) where DNA sequences are known and the worldwide spread of chloroquine resistance (red arrows).
