Blood meals from ‘dead-end’ vertebrate hosts enhance transmission potential of malaria-infected mosquitoes

2022-12-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Ingestion of an additional blood meal(s) by mosquitoes can accelerate parasite migration to the salivary glands in infected mosquitoes. Most studies, however, offer blood from the same vertebrate host species as the original challenge (for e.g., human for primary and additional blood meals). Here, we show a second blood meal from bovine and canine hosts can also enhance sporozoite migration in...
