Gametocyte-Forming and Non-Gametocyte-Forming Clones of Plasmodium Falciparum
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1984Three clones have been prepared from the Honduras I/CDC strain of Plasmodium falciparum by a method of microscopic selection. One of these (HB-2) does not form gametocytes whereas the others (HB-1 and HB-3) do. All three are as resistant to pyrimethamine as the original line, and all three form knobs on the erythrocyte surface.

Gametes and their precursors, the gametocytes, are the very special cell types that Plasmodium developed in the course of evolution to accomplish such key steps in its life cycle and are the subject of this chapter. In the main, cellular and molecular aspects of gametocyte and gamete formation will be covered here.

Eimeria maxima: Identification of gametocyte protein antigens
Experimental Parasitology, 1989The antigenicity of Eimeria maxima gametocyte proteins during the course of an infection and when injected into mice and rabbits was demonstrated using the Western blotting technique. Serum taken from chickens at various times postinfection reacted to a few gametocyte proteins, with the strongest reactivity seen with serum taken 14-days postinfection ...

Complete in vitro maturation of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes
Nature, 1981The form of malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum is probably the most important infectious disease of man. In tropical Africa alone, where malaria affects almost the entire population, it has been estimated that every year the disease causes the death of 1 million children under 14 yr old1.

The Optimal Production of Gametocytes byPlasmodium falciparum
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1998We use a simple model of the blood-stage infection dynamics of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum to consider the adaptive significance of different rates of conversion from its pathogenic, asexual stages to its transmissible, sexual forms. We find that maximize transmissivity in single-strain infections are generally greater than the highest ...

Gametocyte and gamete development inPlasmodium falciparum
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1978The ultrastructural organization of the mature gametocytes ofPlasmodium falciparumisolated from the peripheral circulation of naturally infected Gambians is examined and compared with immature forms obtained from the peripheral circulation of a chloroquine treated patient.

Gametocyte Production in Cloned Lines of Plasmodium Falciparum
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1984Gametocyte production by cloned lines of Plasmodium falciparum and their parental isolates has been studied in culture over periods of several months. Many isolates differed significantly from each other in their capacity for gametocyte production.

A Loss of Gametocytes in Plasmodium elongatum
The Journal of Parasitology, 1947The following study grew out of work on the susceptibility of various species of mosquitoes to the avian malarial parasite, Plasmodium elongatum, and its transmission through the mosquito to the canary and the duck. A review of the literature revealed the following references to the sexual forms. P. elongatum was named after its gametocyte (Huff, 1930)
