Sequential development of Leishmania promastigotes from a noninfective to an infective stage was demonstrated for promastigotes growing in culture and in the sandfly vector. The generation of an infective stage was found to be growth cycle-dependent and restricted to nondividing organisms.
在培养物中以及在白蛉载体中生长的利什曼原虫前鞭毛体,展现出从非感染阶段到感染阶段的连续发育过程。研究发现,感染阶段的产生依赖于生长周期,并且仅限于不进行分裂的生物体。
