title: Influence of some growth promoting substances on multiplication of Plasmodium falciparum in vitro.
abstract: A number of growth promoting substances used in plant tissue culture were investigated for their effect on cultures of malaria parasites. In all, seven such growth promoting substances were employed. Out of these, only three substances, namely indoleacetic acid, indolebutyric acid and gibberellic acid improved P. falciparum growth in vitro.
