Global phylogeographic limits of Hawaii's avian malaria
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2006 The introduction of avian malaria (Plasmodium relictum) to Hawaii has provided a model system for studying the influence of exotic disease on naive host populations.

Holoendemicity of malaria: an avian model
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1980In the Llanos (Flatlands) of Venezuela a high malaria parasite rate was found in nesting birds, mainly in many species of Ciconiiformes, in contrast to a very low one in adults. Species of Plasmodium in birds of this order have seldom been reported. The high densities and sporozoite rates of the local vector, Aedeomyia squamipennis, and the increasing ...

Microplatforms for avian malaria studies
2011 6th IEEE International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems, 2011This work demonstrates a microfluidic platform to study and differentiate avian red blood cells infected to various degrees by the malaria parasite Plasmodium gallinaceum. The preliminary finding points to the feasibility of using the morphological changes on the surface of the malaria infected avian RBC (miaRBC) as biomarkers for diagnosis.

Avian malaria parasites of the genus Plasmodium have the ability to cause morbidity and mortality in naïve hosts, and their impact on the native biodiversity is potentially serious. Over the last decade, avian malaria has aroused increasing interest as an emerging disease in New Zealand with some endemic avian species, such as the endangered mohua ...

Plasmodium spp.: An experimental study on vertebrate host susceptibility to avian malaria
Experimental Parasitology, 2015 The interest in experimental studies on avian malaria caused by Plasmodium species has increased recently due to the need of direct information about host-parasite interactions.

A comparison of techniques employed in detection of avian malaria infection, South Africa
African Zoology, 2013 Avian malaria remains an obscure and mostly unknown avian infection despite the socio-economic threat it poses for poultry industries and its potential to hinder conservation efforts.

Experimental Research on Avian Malaria
1963Publisher Summary This chapter reviews recent advances made in the study of bird malaria. The area of research activities included the relationship between the sporozoite and the exoerythrocytic stage, the use of the chick embryo as a host, in vitro cultivation of both endogenous and exogenous stages, the physiology of erythrocytic stages, immunology,

The Identification of the Avian Malarias
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1938Summary The different species of malaria for which the evidence seems reasonably good have been classified according to their morphological characteristics and their behavior in the canary so that identification is easily possible. In the use of the key which has been included, and the table in which the characteristics of the infections have been ...

The Occurrence of the Avian Malarias in Nature
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1935Summary and Conclusions In the course of a survey which has so far covered a total of 652 birds, belonging to thirty-four different species, fifty-four cases of malaria have been found, a number of them mixed infections. The species of plasmodia represented have included the following, in the order of their frequency: Species Number of cases 1 ...

Genomic Advances in Avian Malaria Research
Trends in Parasitology, 2019Haemosporidian parasites causing malaria-like diseases in birds are globally distributed and have been associated with reduced host fitness and mortality in susceptible bird species. This group of parasites has not only enabled a greater understanding of host specificity, virulence, and parasite dispersal, but has also been crucial in restructuring the
