First microscopic, pathological, epidemiological, and molecular investigation of Leucocytozoon (Apicomplexa: Haemosporida) parasites in Egyptian pigeons. [PDF]

Front Vet Sci
IntroductionLeucocytozoon is an intracellular blood parasite that affects various bird species globally and is transmitted by blackfly vectors. This parasite is responsible for leucocytozoonosis, a disease that results in significant economic losses due to reduced meat and egg production.

Co- and mixed-infections of avian haemosporidian parasites in great tits and blue tits of the French Pyrenees [PDF]

, 2018
Avian haemosporidia have played a significant role in advancing our understanding of vectored disease epidemiology, and continue to do so. These diverse blood parasites (inclusive of those responsible for avian malaria) are globally distributed, adopt ...

Adaptive landscape genetics and malaria across divergent island bird populations [PDF]

, 2019
Environmental conditions play a major role in shaping the spatial distributions of pathogens, which in turn can drive local adaptation and divergence in host genetic diversity.

Unraveling the host range of Plasmodium huffi: morphological, histopathological and molecular characterization in red-legged seriemas from Brazil

Parasitology
Avian Plasmodium parasites can be pathogenic to their vertebrate hosts. Although cases of anaemia are frequently reported in parasitized birds, the potential damage caused by the parasite during the exoerythrocytic reproduction phase remains poorly ...

Seasonal variation in Plasmodium prevalence in a population of blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus [PDF]

1. Seasonal variation in environmental conditions is ubiquitous and can affect the spread of infectious diseases. Understanding seasonal patterns of disease incidence can help to identify mechanisms, such as the demography of hosts and vectors, which ...

, 2023
The distribution of avian haemosporidians of the genus Leucocytozoon in the Neotropics remains poorly understood. Recent studies confirmed their presence in the region using molecular techniques alone, but evidence for gametocytes and data on putative ...

Under the light: high prevalence of haemoparasites in lizards (Reptilia: Squamata) from Central Amazonia revealed by microscopy [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Blood samples from 330 lizards of 19 species were collected to investigate the occurrence of haemoparasites. Samplings were performed in areas of upland (terra-firme) forest adjacent to Manaus municipality, Amazonas, Brazil. Blood parasites were detected

Avian haemosporidian infections in rufous-collared sparrows in an Andean dry forest: diversity and factors related to prevalence and parasitaemia [PDF]

, 2019
Despite intensive research during the last few decades, understanding of ecological and physiological factors related to haemosporidian infections in birds is still fragmentary.

Diversity and Evolution of Sensor Histidine Kinases in Eukaryotes [PDF]

, 2019
Histidine kinases (HKs) are primary sensor proteins that act in cell signaling pathways generically referred to as "two component systems" (TCSs). TCSs are among the most widely distributed transduction systems used by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ...

Effects of migratory status and habitat on the prevalence and intensity of infection by haemoparasites in passerines in eastern Spain [PDF]

, 2013
The Iberian peninsula is a suitable place to study the effects of migratory condition on the prevalence of blood parasites in avian communities as resident, local populations cohabit with migratory species and with abundant vector populations.
