Scientific Opinion on the safety and efficacy of Coxiril® (diclazuril) as a feed additive for guinea fowl [PDF]
EFSA Journal, 2014 Coxiril®, containing 0.5 % diclazuril, is intended for use in the control of coccidiosis in guinea fowl at concentrations between 0.8 and 1.2 mg diclazuril/kg complete feed. Since diclazuril from Coxiril® is considered safe for turkeys for fattening with

Adenovirus‐associated haemorrhagic disease in guinea fowl [PDF]
Avian Pathology, 1995 Nine outbreaks of a disease affecting 2 to 5-month-old guinea fowl, characterized by slight depression and sudden deaths, are described. Gross haemorrhages in the serosa and muscles were constantly observed. Histologically nuclear inclusion bodies, similar to those observed in avian adenovirosis group II were detected in the spleen of affected animals.

Chicken and Quail Microsatellite Markers Reveal Polymorphisms in Guinea Fowl
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2008 Microsatellite markers are tandem repeats of short nucleotides which are abundant, evenly distributed and highly polymorphic in eukaryotic genomes. As such, they are a useful tool in poultry breeding.
