Abstract
A strain of P. vivax from El Salvador was more infectious to the Apastepeque strain of A. albimanus from El Salvador than was a strain of P. vivax from Colombia, South America. The Apastepeque mosquito strain was more susceptible to the Salvadoran strain of P. vivax than were 2 other strains of this mosquito from El Salvador. A strain of A. albimanus from Panama was more susceptible to both strains of the parasite than were any of the Salvadoran strains of A. albimanus.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
