Research progress on genotype of Toxoplasma gondii in birds / 中国人兽共患病学报

ABSTRACT

Toxoplasma gondii is a worldwide distribution of Apicom-plexans,which are widely parasitic in human and warm-blooded animals.Due to the factors such as host and geographical distribution,the population structure has rich genetic diversity.At present,the study of the genotype of Toxoplasma gondii and summary papers are relatively few.This paper reviews the biological information that has been reported in the world regarding the toxoplasmosis of birds such as domesticated chickens,ornamental birds,pet birds and wild rare birds,and to provide basis for further research on biological information such as epidemiology of bird toxoplasmosis and population structure of insects.
