Fatal Sarcocystis falcatula Infection in Three Penguins
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019 Sarcocystis falcatula is a well-known cause of fatal pneumonia in some birds, particularly Old World psittacines. Here we describe fatal sarcosystosis due to S.

Protein import into the endosymbiotic organelles of apicomplexan parasites [PDF]
, 2018 The organelles of endosymbiotic origin, plastids, and mitochondria, evolved through the serial acquisition of endosymbionts by a host cell. These events were accompanied by gene transfer from the symbionts to the host, resulting in most of the organellar

Blood-brain barrier-restricted translocation of Toxoplasma gondii from cortical capillaries
eLife, 2021 The cellular barriers of the central nervous system proficiently protect the brain parenchyma from infectious insults. Yet, the single-celled parasite Toxoplasma gondii commonly causes latent cerebral infection in humans and other vertebrates.

A small mitochondrial protein present in myzozoans is essential for malaria transmission [PDF]
Open Biology, 2016 Myzozoans (which include dinoflagellates, chromerids and apicomplexans) display notable divergence from their ciliate sister group, including a reduced mitochondrial genome and divergent metabolic processes.

The genome of the protozoan parasite Cystoisospora suis and a reverse vaccinology approach to identify vaccine candidates [PDF]
, 2017 Vaccine development targeting protozoan parasites remains challenging, partly due to the complex interactions between these eukaryotes and the host immune system.

Haemoproteus (Apicomplexa: Haemoproteidae) of tortoises and turtles
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1998 It is the general opinion that the haemoproteid blood parasites of chelonians belong to the genus Haemoproteus. Different specific names have long been assigned to this parasite in birds, but some past authorities have accepted only a single species, H. metchnikovi, for all those haemoproteids recorded in a wide range of chelonian genera throughout the
