title: [The relationship between the amount of blood that mosquitoes engorge and their infectivity with the causative agent of malaria].
abstract: The infection of mosquitoes with malaria plasmodia was found to be affected by relative (to full portion) blood amount of the infected donor, which they suck out, i.e. to what extent the engorged portion approximates to the limiting one when mosquitoes cease bloodsucking. The facts obtained show that the survival of plasmodia in a mosquito (most likely, the passing of ookinetes into the outer side of the mid-gut) is associated with the degree of its stretching during bloodsucking. The limit stretching may be also attained during feeding up on a healthy donor.
