A Model For The Ecology Of Avian Malaria [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1971 Although studies on Plasmodium infections of wild birds have been reported frequently in the literature, our knowledge of the ecology of these parasites remains incomplete. A synthesis of data and ideas from these field studies, and recent experimental work led to the construction of the following hypothetical model for the ecology of avian malaria ...

Nowhere to fly: Avian malaria is ubiquitous from ocean to summit on a Hawaiian island
Biological Conservation, 2023 Climate change, habitat degradation and invasive species are key threats to biodiversity globally. Avian malaria in Hawaiʻi is a model system for understanding environmental effects on host, vector, and parasite dynamics and is where all these threats to

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2022 Avian malaria caused by Plasmodium and the malaria-like parasites of the genus Haemoproteus has been regularly described in multiple regions worldwide. These parasites significantly affect many avian taxa, including domestic chickens and fighting cocks ...

Parasites & Vectors, 2023 Background Migratory birds play an important part in the spread of parasites, with more or less impact on resident birds. Previous studies focus on the prevalence of parasites, but changes in infection intensity over time have rarely been studied.

Modeling future conservation of Hawaiian honeycreepers by mosquito management and translocation of disease-tolerant Amakihi. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Avian malaria is an important cause of the decline of endemic Hawaiian honeycreepers. Because of the complexity of this disease system we used a computer model of avian malaria in forest birds to evaluate how two proposed conservation strategies: 1 ...

Bird community effects on avian malaria infections
Scientific Reports, 2023 In community assembly processes, interspecific interactions play an important role in shaping community diversity, especially at the local scale. Changes in species richness or abundance can modify local infectious disease dynamics, either reducing or ...
