Multiplicity of infection (MOI) for Plasmodium knowlesi genotypes in 134 human and 48 macaque hosts across Malaysia. Means of MOI were higher in macaque hosts than in human hosts for both regions, but the values were not statistically significant for peninsular Malaysia (p = 0.25 by Fisher exact test) compared with Malaysian Borneo (p = 0.01).
