1. A diagnostic test for Plasmodium vivax or Plasmodium ovale, to determine a likelihood of a specific timing of infection by P. vivax or P. ovale in a subject by determining a level of antibodies to a plurality of antigens in a blood sample from the subject, wherein the level is measured of antibody to protein selected from at least one of RBP2b (P25) (PVX_094255) (SEQ ID NO:61) or PVX_099980 (L01) (SEQ ID NO:1) and of at least one antibody to a protein selected from the group consisting of PVX_112670 (SEQ ID NO:23), PVX_087885 (SEQ ID NO:45), PVX_096995 (SEQ ID NO:3), PVX_097625 (SEQ ID NO:67) and PVX_000930 (SEQ ID NO:109), wherein the level of antibody is correlated with the time since infection.
