Levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody in pregnant women living in the Brazilian Amazon to recombinant P. vivax antigens. The antibody levels between groups were compared by the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn's multiple comparison test. Values on the y-axis represent mean IgG levels (expressed in MFI) against individual P. vivax antigens. MFI, Median fluorescence index; Pf, Plasmodium falciparum; Pv, Plasmodium vivax; RAMA, Rhoptry-associated membrane antigen; MSP, merozoite surface protein; PvTRAg, P. vivax tryptophan-rich antigen; PvEBP, P. vivax erythrocyte-binding protein; PvDBP II-sal1, P. vivax Duffy binding protein region II from ‘sal1’ strain; PvDBP II-AH, Duffy binding protein region II from ‘AH’ strain; RBP2b, reticulocyte binding protein 2b; **P ≤ 0.01, ***P ≤ 0.001, ****P ≤ 0.0001
