Malaria Journal, 2022 Background Species of Plasmodium (Haemosporida, Plasmodiidae) are remarkably diverse haemoparasites. Information on genetic diversity of avian malaria pathogens has been accumulating rapidly, however exo-erythrocytic development of these organisms ...

MHC-I affects infection intensity but not infection status with a frequent avian malaria parasite in blue tits. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Host resistance against parasites depends on three aspects: the ability to prevent, control and clear infections. In vertebrates the immune system consists of innate and adaptive immunity.

Sex ratios in the rodent malaria parasite, Plasmodium chabaudi [PDF]
, 2003 The sex ratios of malaria and related Apicomplexan parasites play a major role in transmission success. Here, we address 2 fundamental issues in the sex ratios of the rodent malaria parasite, Plasmodium chabaudi.

Anti-Microbiota Vaccine Reduces Avian Malaria Infection Within Mosquito Vectors
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Animal and human pathogens that are transmitted by arthropods are a global concern, particularly those vectored by mosquitoes (e.g., Plasmodium spp. and dengue virus).

PASSIVE IMMUNITY IN AVIAN MALARIA [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1940 The effect of therapy with immune serum has been studied in thirty-two cases of Plasmodium circumflexum infection, all of them produced by blood inoculation. Eighteen of these cases never showed parasites, and seven others developed infections which were definitely milder than those of the controls.

A long-term field study on mosquito vectors of avian malaria parasites in Japan
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2022 Avian malaria is a mosquito-borne disease of birds caused by avian Plasmodium spp. in worldwide scale. Some naïve birds show serious symptoms which can result in death.

BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Background Mitochondrial respiration plays a central role in the survival of many eukaryotes, including apicomplexan parasites. A 479-bp fragment from the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene is widely used as a barcode to identify genetic lineages of avian ...

Insects, 2022 Simple Summary Culiseta longiareolata (Macquart 1838) is a cosmopolitan mosquito species and is considered to be an important vector in the transmission of avian malaria, tularemia, and arboviruses. The present study investigates the population structure

Avian malaria associations with British mosquitoes
, 2012 Avian malaria (Plasmodium spp.) is a popular model system to study the ecology and evolution of parasite-host-vector interactions in the wild. These studies have historically focused mostly on the avian hosts and the malaria parasites.

Stimuli Followed by Avian Malaria Vectors in Host-Seeking Behaviour
Biology, 2022 Simple Summary Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) (e.g., malaria, yellow fever, dengue fever) account for 17% of the estimated global burden of all infectious diseases. They are transmitted to humans and other animals by blood-feeding arthropods.
