Leucocytozoon spp : Leucocytozoonosis

, 2023
La leucocytozoonosis es una parasitosis de las aves producida por especies de Haemosporida (Apicomplexa) pertenecientes a la familia Leucocytozoidae, de ciclo indirecto y de distribución mundial, transmitida por vectores dípteros hematófagos. Algunas especies han sido asociadas a brotes de enfermedad, e incluso muertes en aviarios, zoológicos y granjas

Complex interactions between bacteria and haemosporidia in coinfected hosts: An experiment

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Hosts are typically coinfected by multiple parasite species whose interactions might be synergetic or antagonistic, producing unpredictable physiological and pathological impacts on the host. This study shows the interaction between Plasmodium spp.
