本文对间日疟原虫、食蟹猴疟原虫、伯氏疟原虫、夏氏疟原虫和鸡疟原虫5种疟原虫子孢子的超微结构进行了观察。它存在于卵囊和蚊子唾液腺的灵长类和鸟类物种的子孢子，但没有检测到在两个啮齿类疟疾。在罕见的情况下，在食蟹猴卵囊原虫的单个子孢子中观察到一个以上的孢子，而在其他物种中则没有。测量了间日疟原虫和食蟹猴疟原虫中微孔的直径和深度，发现差异很大;然而，根据作者的说法，在所有情况下，其结构都是典型的非功能性细胞器。对子孢子的其他细胞器，包括线粒体、棒状体和膜下微管也作了一些补充观察。作者在讨论中认为，啮齿类疟疾子孢子表面无微孔与这些寄生虫感染性差之间可能存在着联系，没有微孔反映了大多数子孢子的形态发生不完全。A.

The ultrastructure of sporozoites of 5 species of malaria parasites,Plasmodium vivax, P. cynomolgi, P. berghei nigeriensis, P. vinckei chabaudiand P.gallinaceum, was examined with special reference to the occurrence of the micropore. It was present in sporozoites from oöcysts and from mosquito salivary glands of the primate and avian species but was not detected in the two rodent malarias. On rare occasions more than one micropore was seen in single sporozoites from P.cynomolgioöcysts but not in the other species. The diameter and depths of micropores in P.vivaxand P.cynomolgiwere measured and were found to vary considerably; in all cases, however, the structure was, according to the authors, typical of a non-functional organelle. Some supplementary observations on other organelles of the sporozoites, including the mitochondria, rhoptries and subpellicular microtubules, are included. In discussion, the authors consider the possible relationship between apparent absence of micropores from sporozoites of rodent malarias and the poor infectivity of these parasites, absence of the micropore reflecting incomplete morphogenesis of most of the sporozoites.The paper includes 19 electron micrographs.G.
