- Genotyping calls based on MSP-2 alone or all six markers, in the four possible compartment combinations on day 0 and day of failure. There is a high degree of variability in genotyping calls between pairs of samples from each compartment using MSP-2 alone, although the variability is reduced with the use of multiple markers
