Evolutionary conservation of Trichomonas-mycoplasma symbiosis across the host species barrier
IntroductionThe protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis is the most common cellular sexually transmitted disease in humans, and the closely related species Trichomonas gallinae is an avian parasite of ecological and economic importance.

FINGERPRINTING AND GENETIC RELATIONSHIP OF TRICHOMONAS VAGINALIS, TRICHOMONAS MURIS AND TRICHOMONAS GALLINAE [PDF]
Because of the common pathology, protein expression and drug resistance mechanisms-though in different hosts- of the luminal trichomonads Trichomonas vaginalis, T. gallinae and T. muris, doubts were raised concerning their phylogenetic relationship.

Prevalence of Haemoproteus columbae (Apicomplexa: Haemoproteidae) and Trichomonas gallinae (Metamonada: Trichomonadidae) infections among pigeons (Columba livia) in West Azerbaijan Province, Iran [PDF]
A cross-sectional survey was performed on domestic pigeons (Columba liviadomestica) to evaluate the prevalence of Haemoproteus columbae and Trichomonas gallinae in West Azerbaijan Province, northwest of Iran between July 2015 and September 2016.

Given the increasing impact humans are having on resource availability in natural and semi‐natural environments, general theory, ground‐truthed with data from natural host‐parasite systems, can help delevop hypotheses on how different parasite are likely to respond to resource provisioning in natural populations.

Molecular characterization of Trichomonas gallinae isolates recovered from the Canadian Maritime provinces’ wild avifauna reveals the presence of the genotype responsible for the European finch trichomonosis epidemic and additional strains [PDF]
Finch trichomonosis, caused by Trichomonas gallinae, emerged in the Canadian Maritime provinces in 2007 and has since caused ongoing mortality in regional purple finch (Carpodacus purpureus) and American goldfinch (Carduelis tristis) populations ...

Abstract Understanding the frequency, spatiotemporal dynamics and impacts of parasite coinfections is fundamental to developing control measures and predicting disease impacts. The European turtle dove (Streptopelia turtur) is one of Europe's most threatened bird species.

European Turtle Doves Streptopelia turtur have experienced a sharp decline in population numbers over past decades. Much uncertainty exists about the main cause or causes. Several pressures have been suggested, but because they affect different stages of the life cycle of the Turtle Dove, it is difficult to compare their contributions to the population

Interactions between co‐occurring species, including competition and predation, comprise critical processes regulating local community structure, habitat use, and diversity. We monitored nesting habitats, breeding chronology, and reproductive success rates to describe the patterns of spatiotemporal organization of three co‐habiting species: the “native”
