内容説明

An overview of the rapid and significant developments that have occurred in malaria research. * Provides an introduction to Plasmodium molecular biology and its genetics and evolution. * Examines the intricate host-parasite relationship through comprehensive coverage of invasion and gamete formation, growth and metabolism, immune invasion, protection mechanisms, and the malaria vector. * Serves as an important resource for molecular biologists, biochemists, cell biologists, chemists, pathologists, parasitologists, entomologists, and immunologists, and a single reference source to update teachers, investigators, and public health officials on the status of malaria research. This title is published by the American Society for Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
