Engineering mosquito resistance to malaria parasites: the avian malaria model
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2002Genetic approaches to controlling the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases are being developed to augment the available chemical control practices and environmental manipulation methods. Much progress has been made in laboratory-based research that seeks to develop antipathogen or antivector effector genes and methods for genetically manipulating ...

Recent Experimental Research on Avian Malaria
1968Publisher Summary This chapter supplements the more extensive earlier experimental research on avian malaria . Two symposia have been published on malaria since the earlier review. Although these reports included work on many phases of malaria, a considerable portion of them dealt with avian malaria.

Avian Malaria in African Black-Footed Penguins
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1979SUMMARY Ten captive-reared African black-footed penguins (Spheniscus demersus) from a large outdoor colony were monitored for avian malaria, using several diagnostic tests. One treatment regimen was evaluated. Thin smear blood evaluation enabled detection of seven parasitemias involving Plasmodium relictum and Plasmodium elongatum in the penguins ...

Avian malaria infections in western European mosquitoes
Parasitology Research, 2012In the complex life cycle of avian malaria parasites (Plasmodium sp.), we still have a poor understanding on the vector-parasite relationships. This study described the community of potential avian malaria vectors in four Portuguese reedbeds. We tested if their geographical distribution differed, and investigated on their Plasmodium infections.

Avian Hosts for Malaria Research
The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1941E XPERIMENTS with avian malaria have contributed a great deal to our understanding of the life cycle of the human malaria parasite. In addition, the basic studies on chemotherapy of malaria have been carried out with birds, and have resulted in the discovery of the two best known synthetic drugs, plasmochin and atebrin.

Anopheles Mosquitoes and Avian Malaria
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine, 1931Mayne (1) reported in 1928 finding oocysts of avian malaria (provisionally identified as belonging to the species P. praecox, Grassi and Feletti, 1890) in anopheles mosquitoes (A. subpictus), some experimentally fed on an infected sparrow, others caught in a room where malaria-infected birds were being kept.

INTRAVASCULAR AGGLUTINATIONS IN AVIAN MALARIA
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1943To the Editor:— In the January 23 issue ofThe Journal, under Current Comment, you reviewed an article by Dr. Arthur R. Lack on Intravascular Agglutinations in Avian Malaria. In your review you credit to the University of Chicago the original and fundamental observations on circulatory changes in simian malaria made by Dr.
