  1. The difference in the mutations among three periods of time was calculated by Pearson’s Chi-squared test. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001
  2. aPoint mutations are shown in boldface. Pvdhfr, P. vivax dihydrofolate reductase gene; pvdhps, P. vivax dihydropteroate synthase gene; pvmdr1, P. vivax multidrug resistance 1 gene; pvcrt-o, P. vivax chloroquine resistance transporter-o gene
