Parasitemias in dams acutely or chronically infected with TcI, TcII or TcVI.

<p>ING = infected and non-gravid mice; see <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0002271#pntd-0002271-g001" target="_blank">Figure 1</a> for nomenclature of IAM, CI and CI² groups; parasitemias were recorded at delivery for IAM (dpi 7–9), CI (dpi 94–96), CI² dams (dpi 9–11 of reinfection) and at dpi 7 for ING mice; parasitemias in TcI acute-infection and TcII and TcVI chronic infections were recorded by qPCR, whereas those of acute TcII and TcVI infections were determined by blood microscopic investigation. * = P<0.05 by comparison to the ING group.
