Title: The sporogonic cycle of Plasmodium reichenowi. Author: Collins WE, Skinner JC, Pappaioanou M, Broderson JR, Mehaffey P. Journal: J Parasitol; 1986 Apr; 72(2):292-8. PubMed ID: 3734994. Abstract: Plasmodium reichenowi, a malarial parasite of the chimpanzee, was infective to Anopheles freeborni, Anopheles quadrimaculatus, Anopheles stephensi, Anopheles maculatus, Anopheles dirus, and Anopheles culicifacies mosquitoes. Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles albimanus were not infected. Mean oocyst diameters of P. reichenowi were smaller than those of the other chimpanzee parasite, Plasmodium schwetzi. Sporozoites were present in the salivary glands of An. freeborni at 15 days when held at 25 to 26 C.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
