Arrested development in human hookworm infections: an adaptation to a seasonally unfavorable external environment.

G A Schad, A B Chowdhury, C G Dean, V K Kochar, T A Nawalinski, J Thomas, J A Tonascia.   

Abstract

Contrary to general belief, larvae of Ancylostoma duodenale do not always develop directly to adulthood upon invasion of man. In West Bengal, India, arrested development appears to be a seasonal phenomenon which results in (i) reduction of egg output wasted in seeding an inhospitable environment and (ii) a marked increase in eggs entering the environment just before the monsoon begins.
