The effects of mosquito transmission and population bottlenecking on virulence, multiplication rate and rosetting in rodent malaria.
Malaria parasites vary in virulence, but the effects of mosquito transmission on virulence phenotypes have not been systematically analysed. Using six lines of malaria parasite that varied widely in virulence, three of which had been serially blood-stage passaged many times, we found that mosquito t...
