  1. Note: The double mutants were confirmed in repeated amplification and sequencing experiments
  2. aIn isolates collected from 2006 to 2007 and 2013 to 2014 along Grande Comore Island, Union of Comoros. The mutated amino acids are indicated by bold type
  3. bStatistically significant differences for comparison with isolates circulating in 2006–2007 from Grande Comore Island (*P < 0.05) using Mann–Whitney U test
