Correction to: Polymorphisms in chloroquine resistance-associated genes in Plasmodium vivax in Ethiopia.

After publication of the original article [1], it came to the authors' attention that the primers mentioned in Table 1 for the amplification of the pvcrt-o gene of Plasmodium vivax are not the ones actually used for the experiments. The correct primers and PCR product size are as below.
