Abstract excerpt

Using microscopy and PCR, we determined the prevalence of blood parasites in village chickens in Uganda and Cameroon. Of 148 individuals tested, 18.3% were infected with Leucocytozoon schoutedeni (Haemosporida, Leucocytozoidae) and 4.1% were infected with Trypanosoma gallinarum (Kinetoplastida, Trypanosomatidae). No other blood parasites were detected. Subsequent phylogenetic analysis of the cytochrome b gene of...
