Similarly, two cases in Bat camp, Miao area under Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh had shown a total of eight mutations, of which one mutation in Pfcrt gene, three mutations in Pfdhfr gene, three mutations in Pfdhps gene and one mutation in PfATPase6gene. One case in 3 Miles, Miao area of Changlang district has shown mutations in Pfcrt (one mutation), Pfdhfr (four mutations) and Pfdhps (three mutations) gene.
