Concepts in Animal Parasitology, Chapter 10: Haemosporida (Order): The “Malaria Parasites” [Protozoa, Apicomplexa] [PDF]

An overview of the order Haemosporida, also referred to as the malaria parasites, including history of the knowledge of malaria, general life cycle, diversity of the group, classification, and phylogenetic relationships. Covers malaria parasites of birds,

Molekularphylogenetische Analysen der Ecdysozoa und Haemosporida

, 2017
The advent of molecular phylogenetics has revolutionized our understanding of the tree of life. In my PhD thesis, I have aimed to elucidate various aspects of the deep phylogeny of Ecdysozoa and Haemosporida employing classical PCR-based approaches, next-

Attraction between sexes : male-female gametocyte behaviour within a Leucocytozoon toddi (Haemosporida)

, 2008
Understanding the breeding systems of Plasmodium, and the closely related Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon (Apicomplexa: Haemosporida), is fundamental to virulence and transmission research.

Polychromophilus spp. (Haemosporida) in Malagasy bats: host specificity and insights on invertebrate vectors

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Bats are home to diverse haemosporidian parasites namely Plasmodium and Plasmodium-related. While information is available at a worldwide level, haemosporidian infection in bats from Madagascar is still scarce and recent changes in the ...

Elucidating the Factors that Modulate the Distribution of Avian Haemosporida Parasites across a Community of Hosts

, 2013
Parasites are heterogeneously distributed across host species, host populations, and host individuals within populations. A primary aim of infectious disease ecology seeks to uncover the factors that drive this heterogeneity. At a fundamental level, host

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

The polyphyly of \u3ci\u3ePlasmodium\u3c/i\u3e: comprehensive phylogenetic analyses of the malaria parasites (order Haemosporida) reveal widespread taxonomic conflict [PDF]

, 2018
The evolutionary relationships among the apicomplexan blood pathogens known as the malaria parasites (order Haemosporida), some of which infect nearly 200 million humans each year, has remained a vexing phylogenetic problem due to limitations in taxon ...

Data from: Specialized avian Haemosporida trade reduced host breadth for increased prevalence

, 2014
Parasite specialization on one or a few host species leads to a reduction in the total number of available host individuals, which may decrease transmission.

FIGURE 1 in Comparison of mitochondrial cytochrome b lineages and morphospecies of two avian malaria parasites of the subgenera Haemamoeba and Giovannolaia (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae)

, 2007
FIGURE 1. Neighbour-joining (NJ) tree of 32 lineages of Plasmodium spp. and five lineages of Haemoproteus spp. as the outgroup. The NJ tree was constructed using the Kimura 2-parameter distance matrix with bootstrap resampling (1,000 times).
