Risk Factors and Coinfection Dynamics of Pathogens in Wild Turkeys (<i>Meleagris gallopavo</i>) From Pennsylvania, USA. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We determined the associations and risk factors of infection by lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV), reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV), three avian Mycoplasma species, and internal parasites in Pennsylvania wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo). Active surveillance of parasites and pathogens was conducted over four years and four regions across ...

Co-Infection, but Not Infection Intensity, Increases Shedding in a Gastrointestinal Helminth of Gamebirds. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Host heterogeneity in disease transmission is influential in shaping disease dynamics, but its drivers remain poorly understood. Shedding intensity is often assumed to be directly proportional to infection intensity; however, we found that infection intensity was a poor predictor of shedding intensity in Heterakis gallinarum, a gastrointestinal ...

Metazoan-protozoan parasite co-infections and host body weight in St Kilda Soay sheep [PDF]

, 2008
For hundreds of years, the unmanaged Soay sheep population on St Kilda has survived despite enduring presumably deleterious co-infections of helminth, protozoan and arthropod parasites and intermittent periods of starvation.
