Effect of Streptomycin on Avian Malaria
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1945 Streptomycin, an antibiotic produced by the soil actinomycete Streptomyces griseus, was first described by Schatz, Bugie, and Waks-man.1 Unlike penicillin, streptomycin has been shown to have a high order of activity against certain gram negative infections both in vitro and in vivo.2,3,4 Streptomycin has also been found to be active against the acid ...

Location and timing of infection drives a sex-bias in Haemoproteus prevalence in a hole-nesting bird
ParasitologySex biases in prevalence of disease are often attributed to intrinsic factors, such as physiological differences while a proximate role of extrinsic factors such as behavioural or ecological differences may be more difficult to establish.

Importance of asymptomatic malaria and its infectivity to Anopheles mosquitoes in Mae Hong Son Province, Thailand [PDF]
This study aimed to record the prevalence of asymptomatic malaria and the development of malaria parasites in laboratory-bred Anopheles minimus mosquitoes fed on the blood of people with or without malaria symptoms.

Malaria infection status predicts extra-pair paternity in the blue tit
, 2015 Extra-pair matings comprise a common reproductive strategy among socially monogamous bird species. However, it remains unclear why females decide to mate with extra-pair males. Indirect benefits in terms of improving offspring genetic quality are usually

L: Avian malaria infections in western European mosquitoes
, 2020 In the complex life cycle of avian malaria parasites (Plasmodium sp.), we still have a poor understanding on the vector-parasite relationships. This study described the community of potential avian malaria vectors in four Portuguese reedbeds.

Plasmodium spp.: An experimental study on vertebrate host susceptibility to avian malaria.
, 2015 The interest in experimental studies on avian malaria caused by Plasmodium species has increased recently due to the need of direct information about host-parasite interactions.
