Tamirat Gebru, Asrat Hailu, Peter G Kremsner, Jürgen FJ Kun, Martin P Grobusch Malaria Journal 2006, 5:112 (21 November 2006) In the absence of drug pressure, spontaneous and possibly resistance-conferring mutations are rare. Only 10% mutant types were found in Gabonese isolates and all isolates from Ethiopia were wild-type.
