Buckling, A., Crooks, L., and Read A. 1999. Plasmodium chabaudi: Effect of antimalarial drugs on gametocytogenesis. Experimental Parasitology 93, 45–54. The proportion of asexual blood-stage malaria parasites that develop into transmission stages (gametocytes) can increase in response to stress. We investigated whether stress imposed by a variety of antimalarial drugs administered before or dur...
