While still in its early design phases , hpf2 will likely focus on plasmodium , the pathogenic agent that causes malaria .
虽然仍处于早期设计阶段,hpf2可能会着眼于疟原虫,导致疟疾的病原物。
Unlike plasmodium , however , which can rely on the natural behaviour of mosquitoes to spread it around , toxoplasma 's rodent hosts have a strong aversion to helping it into its next home .
疟原虫可以通过蚊子的天然习性进行广泛传播.而弓形虫其所感染的龋齿动物对于传播的下个环节却很排斥。
This parasite is not , however , as deadly as plasmodium falciparum , the main cause of malarial mortality . Nor is it as widespread in africa .
可是这种疟原虫的杀伤力却不如恶性疟原虫这种主要导致死亡的寄生虫厉害,也不如它在非洲传播得那样广。
Malaria is caused by a one-celled parasite called a plasmodium .
疟疾是由称为疟原虫的一种单细胞寄生虫造成的。
It contains an engineered protein that combines a protein fragment from the malaria parasite , plasmodium falciparum , and a protein from the hepatitis b virus that helps trigger a strong immune response .
Yet malaria comes in several versions , two of which are widespread . They are caused by related parasites , plasmodium falciparum and plasmodium vivax . They are both transmitted by anopheles mosquitoes .
