The book opens with an introduction to Plasmodium molecular biology, followed by several chapters on its genetics and evolution. The remaining five sections examine the intricate host-parasite relationship through comprehensive coverage of invasion and gamete formation; growth and metabolism; immune invasion; protection mechanisms; and the malaria vector. 606 $aMalaria$xMolecular aspects 606 $aMolecular biology 606 $aMalaria$xTreatment 615 0$aMalaria$xMolecular aspects. 615 0$aMolecular biology. 615 0$aMalaria$xTreatment. 676 $a614.532 702 $aSherman$b Irwin W. 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910830578003321 996 $aMolecular Approaches to Malaria$94085374 997 $aUNINA
