  1. To test the accuracy and call rate of the new heuristic algorithm cultured 3D7 strain parasites were genotyped under differing leukocyte depletion, whole-genome amplification, and parasite concentrations. We then compared the previously describe D-score method to the heuristic algorithm. (WGA = whole-genome amplification, LD = leukocyte depletion, p/μl = parasites per microliter).
