Eimeria Avium and the Diagnosis of Avian Coccidiosis.
Poultry Science, 1923 Abstract Eimeria avium, the causal agent of coccidiosis in chickens and other fowls, is perhaps the most serious parasitic menace known to commercial chicken raising, especially so where large numbers of fowls are handled on limited areas. It is evident that the most rational means of overcoming the coccidiosis phase of the soil contamination problem

Avian influenza and the poultry trade [PDF]
Because of high mortality rates, high rates of contagion, and the possibility of cross-species infection to mammals including humans, high pathogenic avian influenza is a major concern both to consumers and producers of poultry.
