The effects of tributyrin supplementation on weight gain and intestinal gene expression in broiler chickens during Eimeria maxima-induced coccidiosis1

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2021
Butyrate is a feed additive that has been shown to have antibacterial properties and improve gut health in broilers. Here, we examined the performance and gene expression changes in the ileum of tributyrin–supplemented broilers infected with coccidia ...

Conservation Management Strategies Shape Glucocorticoid Levels in African Elephant Populations More Than Parasite Load

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 4, Page 295-304, August 2026.
Understanding the factors influencing physiological stress is essential for interpreting how wildlife responds to contrasting environmental and management conditions. Across 19 South African elephant populations, we found that smaller reserves, self‐drive tourism, and high elephant density under low vegetation productivity were associated with elevated

Taxon, Arboreality, Sex, and Season—Factors Influencing Gastrointestinal Parasite Occurrence in Zoo‐Housed Non‐Human Primates

open access: yesZoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 371-381, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Eimeria saudiensis From Arabian Oryx (Oryx leucoryx) Held in Captivity in the Sultanate of Oman 阿曼苏丹国圈养阿拉伯羚羊 (Oryx leucoryx) 体内沙特艾美球虫 (Eimeria saudiensis) 的形态学与分子特征

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 73-82, June 2026.
Eimeria saudiensis represents a genus of apicomplexan parasites capable of inducing coccidiosis in Arabian oryx. Our research concentrated on the morphological and molecular investigation of Eimeria spp. in the captive oryx herd in Oman. The therapeutic and management practices employed at the Mammals Breeding Center were reassessed to diminish ...
