Intraspecific Variations in Biology and Pathogenesis of Two Eimeria maxima Isolates From Distinct Geographic Locations [PDF]
Veterinary Medicine and ScienceEimeria maxima is one of the seven Eimeria species that infect poultry. Despite being highly immunogenic, this species also displays variability in terms of antigenic characteristics.

A Study of Cross-Protection between Eimeria maxima Immunovariants [PDF]
PathogensFor reasons unknown, Eimeria maxima is unique among Eimeria species infecting chickens in the immunovariability it displays among isolates from different geographical areas. Eimeria maxima oocysts (named EmaxAPU3) were isolated late in grow-out (6 weeks)
