Prevalence of Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon spp. in Wild Birds in Hatay, Turkey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Hemosporidian parasites that cause infections in poultry and death in susceptible animals show a global distribution. In this distribution, the role of infected wild birds migrating among different regions of the world is great.

Culicoides biting midges involved in transmission of haemoproteids

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Culicoides biting midges (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) are known vectors of avian Haemoproteus parasites. These parasites cause diseases, pathology and even mortality in birds.

Blood Parasites in Domestic Birds in Central Iran

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2020
Parasites may affect the dynamics of bird populations. Plasmodium, Leucocytozoon and Haemoproteus are well-known avian haematozoa that can trigger decreased productivity and high mortality in domesticated birds. In this study, we evaluated the prevalence

Blood Parasites and Wildlife: The Development of a Discipline. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
Changes in our knowledge on blood parasite infections of wild animals in the last 30 years is reviewed with emphasis on taxonomy and phylogeny, impact of infections on fitness, and distribution of blood parasites. ABSTRACT In the last 30 years, the area of the study of parasitism caused by blood parasite infections on wildlife has suffered an ...

New Haemoproteus parasite of parrots, with remarks on the virulence of haemoproteids in naive avian hosts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Haemoproteus infections can cause fatal disease in parrots (Psittaciformes), one of the most endangered groups of birds. The great diversity of parrots in tropical and subtropical ecosystems has been markedly understudied in terms of their parasite ...

From Galapagos doves to passerines: Spillover of Haemoproteus multipigmentatus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Haemoproteus (Haemoproteus) multipigmentatus, a haemosporidian parasite thought to be specific to columbiform birds, was detected in passeriform birds on Santiago Island in the Galapagos archipelago. We surveyed birds along an altitudinal gradient on the

Unraveling Occurrence Patterns and Diversity of Avian Malaria Parasites in Iberian Obligate and Facultative Scavenger Birds

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Low overall haemosporidian occurrence (3.4%; 13/383). Unexpected high lineage diversity (10 new host–parasite interactions). Novel Leucocytozoon lineage (GYPBAR01) in all European vultures except the griffon vulture. Plasmodium relictum (lineage SGS1) in adult red kites.

Genomic Content in Avian Haemosporidian Parasites Suggests Co‐Regulation of Apicoplast and Mitochondrial Nucleoids

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Apicoplast genomic content and mitochondrial genomic content were found to be strongly correlated (rho = 0.93) for infections going from low to high. Apicoplast and mitochondrial genomic content were deemed as more predictive factors of parasitemia for different infection intensities.
