Phylogenetic relationship of the parasite isolates based on the PvRBP2b reticulocyte binding region. a An unrooted phylogenetic tree. The tree was constructed using the neighbor-joining method with bootstrap supports from 1000 replicates. The origins of the parasite isolates are represented by different colors. b A haplotype network. The size of the pies reflects the frequency of the specific haplotype. The lengths of the lines connecting the pies measured from their centers are in proportion to the number of base pair substitutions separating the haplotypes. Endemic regions are represented by same colors used in the phylogenetic tree
