摘要：

In this review, Anil Ghosh, Marten Edwards and Marcelo Jacobs-Lorena follow the journey of the Plasmodium parasite in the mosquito vector. At each developmental step, they highlight some of the major unanswered questions currently challenging cell and molecular biologists. A more thorough understanding of Plasmodium-mosquito interactions might lead to the development of mosquitoes unable to support parasite development.
