Seasonal Variation and Interspecies Dynamics Among <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> and <i>ovale</i> Species in Bagamoyo, Tanzania
The epidemiology of P. ovale species in coastal Tanzania suggests they are frequently present when P. falciparum recedes, but also co-infect the same hosts during the short wet season. Meanwhile, the individual Poc and Pow species often co-exist within individuals, perhaps due to co-transmission or concurrent relapse.
