| trichomonas gallinae infections in the ringdove (streptopelia risoria). | twenty trichomonas-free ringdoves (streptopelia risoria) were intubated with trichomonas gallinae derived from pigeons (columba livia). by 15 days post-intubation (dpi) five doves had t. gallinae-type lesions (cankers) in the pregastric portion of the digestive system, and six doves had t. gallinae present without lesions. sixteen trichomonas-free ring doves were infected using t. gallinae from axenic cultures. by 21 dpi four doves had t. gallinae lesions and died, and one dove had t. gallinae p ... | 1982 | 7097875 |
| relationships of trichomonas gallinae to the palatal-esophageal junction of ring doves (streptopelia risoria) as revealed by scanning electron microscopy. | ring doves (streptopelia risoria) were experimentally infected with pathogenic (virulent) trichomonas gallinae so that trichomonad activities in the upper alimentary tract, prior to canker formation, could be examined with scanning electron microscopy. between 6 and 15 hr postinoculation low numbers of ameboid t. gallinae were attached to apical microfolds and cell borders of the palatal-esophageal junction squamous epithelium. initial parasite activities at tightly attached cell borders and api ... | 1993 | 8501599 |
| trichomonosis in free-ranging eurasian collared doves (streptopelia decaocto) and african collared dove hybrids (streptopelia risoria) in the caribbean and description of its-1 region genotypes. | we report the first documented occurrence of an outbreak of trichomonosis in a free-ranging small flock of eurasian collared doves (streptopelia decaocto) and african collared dove hybrids (streptopelia risoria) in the caribbean. in total, 18 birds were examined, including six african collared dove x eurasian collared dove hybrids and 12 eurasian collared doves. the affected age class consisted of adults. sex distribution was equal. with a flock population size of 200 birds, mortality rate for t ... | 2012 | 22856210 |
| attempts at infecting ringed turtle doves with virulent trichomonas gallinae. | twenty trichomonas -free ringed turtle doves ( streptopelia risoria ) were inoculated per os with the highly virulent jones' barn strain of trichomonas gallinae . none became infected. three f1 females housed together were similarly inoculated with this strain and remained trichomonas -positive for upwards of 182 days. they showed no disease and eventually lost their infections. these three positive females "mated" and laid several six-egg sets in a communal nest. at successive nestings they wer ... | 1977 | 24228964 |
