Abstract:
:To quantify the effect of Nosema algerae (Microsporidia, Nosematidae) on the development of Plasmodium falciparum in Anopheles stephensi (Diptera, Culicidae), we carried out infection experiments under standardized laboratory conditions. Apart from a mean reduction of 69% in oocyst development, smaller numbers of oocysts and fewer sporozoites were found in the Nosema-infected mosquitoes. In addition, nosematosis resulted in higher mortality. The potential role of Nosema algerae as a biological control agent is discussed.
