Impact of vertebrate host parasitaemia on <i>Plasmodium</i> development within mosquitoes
2024-07-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> In vector-borne diseases, invertebrate hosts are exposed to highly variable quantities of parasites during their blood meal. This heterogeneity may partly explain the overdispersed distribution of parasites within the vector population, as well as the variability in the extrinsic incubation period (EIP) of the parasite. Indeed, the quantity of parasites ingested is often considered as a good p...
