dc.description.abstractHemosporidian parasites that cause infections in poultry and death in susceptible animals show a global distribution. Infected wild birds play an important role in this distribution due to seasonal migration among different regions. Hatay, where migratory birds enter Turkey, is an active region regarding vectors, disease agents and hosts. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon parasites in wild birds of Hatay Province by microscopic and molecular methods. Blood samples were taken from a total of 50 wild birds belonging to three orders, eight species. In the microscopic examination, Haemoproteus spp. infection 18% (9/50) and coinfections (Haemoproteus spp. and Leucocytozoon spp.) 4% (2/50) were detected while in the PCR examination, coinfections 4% (2/50), H. columbae 20% (10/50) and Leucocytozoon spp. 2% (1/50) were detected. As a result, haemosporidian parasites were detected in approximately one of every four wild birds (microscopic 22%, molecular 26%).en_US
