Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Avian Haemosporidian Parasites in Southern Iran

Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Avian Haemosporidian Parasites in Southern Iran

Avian haemosporidians are widespread and diverse and are classified in the genera <i>Plasmodium</i>, <i>Haemoproteus, Leucocytozoon</i>, and <i>Fallisia</i>. These species are known to cause haemosporidiosis and decreased fitness of their hosts. Despite the high d...
