Life history of a malaria parasite (Plasmodium mexicanum): independent traits and basis for variation.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Apr 2000

Eisen R J, Schall J J

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium mexicanum, a malaria parasite of lizards, exhibits substantial variation among infections in the life-history traits which define its blood-dwelling stages. Such variation in life histories among infections is common in Plasmodium and may influence the ecology and evolution of the parasite's transmission success and virulence. Insight into these issues requires identification of independent traits...
