Sex and Death: The Effects of Innate Immune Factors on the Sexual Reproduction of Malaria Parasites
Malaria parasites must undergo a round of sexual reproduction in the blood meal of a mosquito vector to be transmitted between hosts. Developing a transmission-blocking intervention to prevent parasites from mating is a major goal of biomedicine, but its effectiveness could be compromised if parasit...
