    Journal: J Parasitol; 1985 Apr; 71(2):239-43. PubMed ID: 3889264.
    Abstract:
    Sixty-seven splenectomized Aotus azarae boliviensis were infected with strains of Plasmodium vivax from Southeast Asia (2), New Guinea (2), North Korea (1), and Central America (3). Maximum parasitemias varied among the different strains, with the mean maximum parasitemia for the primary infection period being 16,200 per mm3. Animals previously infected with Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium malariae produced maximum parasitemias of 30,200 and 11,900 per mm3, respectively. Gametocytes infective to Anopheles freeborni mosquitoes were produced with 7 of the 8 strains examined.
