| apparent absence of parahaemoproteus lophortyx and other hematozoa in north florida populations of bobwhite quail (colinus virginianus). | parahaemoproteus lophortyx (formerly haemoproteus lophortyx) is known to infect populations of bobwhite quail (colinus virginianus) in california and to lead to considerable mortalities in these birds. populations of bobwhite quail in florida have never been surveyed for the presence of this parasite. the goal of this study was to determine whether p. lophortyx is present in populations of bobwhite quail in north florida. to achieve this goal, blood was drawn from 294 bobwhite quail from 4 study ... | 2009 | 19382825 |
