PY - 2016 DA - 2016/04/18 TI - Ecological influences on the behaviour and fertility of malaria parasites JO - Malaria Journal SP - 220 VL - 15 IS - 1 AB - Sexual reproduction in the mosquito is essential for the transmission of malaria parasites and a major target for transmission-blocking interventions. Male gametes need to locate and fertilize females in the challenging environment of the mosquito blood meal, but remarkably little is known about the ecology and behaviour of male gametes.
