“…In the present study, various coccidian stages (both asexual and sexual) were recognized including developing schizont and macrogametocyte characterized by the peripherally arranged wall-forming bodies and surrounded by parasitophorous vacuole were noted within the epithelial cell, even in the lamina propria of villi. These results are in accordance with those reported for many other Eimeria (Abdel- Ghaffar et al, 1991;Dai et al, 2005;Mehlhorn, 2006 andBashtar et al, 2010). Additionally, there were plasma cells and macrophage phagocyte early parasite were observed, this may occurs as inflammatory defense reaction against Eimeria parasite.…”

Light microscopic study on Eimeria species infecting Japanese quails reared in Saudi Arabian farms

et al. 2010

Japanese quails Coturnix coturnix japonica reared in economic farms were individually investigated for coccidian infections. The results indicated the absence of infections in birds younger than 1 month. An Eimeria infection rate of up to 80% was detected in birds 7-9 weeks old with a general infection rate of 29%. The infection rate decreased to 21.42% in birds older than 10 weeks. Morphometric characteristics of freshly shed, unsporulated oocysts were taken. These oocysts appeared pale yellow in color, were oval to subspherical in shape being limited by a bilayered oocyst wall of 1.2 microm. The unsporulated oocysts measured 17.73 +/- 12.92 x 12.79 +/- 1.69 microm (mean of 100) and possessed a polar granule, a micropyle and an oocyst residuum. The sporulation took 72 h and resulted in the formation of four elongated sporocysts containing two sporozoites, in addition to a stieda body and a sporocyst residuum. The life cycle of this Eimeria species was followed in experimentally infected quails. Three asexual generations (at 60, 78, and 96 h p.i.) were detected in the epithelium of the small intestine before the sexual cycle started at 84 h p.i. The prepatent period was 5 days, while the patent period covered 6-7 days. Besides this well-defined species, another Eimeria species occurred, the oocysts of which were excreted in low numbers and were characterized by the absence of a micropyle and an oocyst residuum. These oocysts measured 15.73 +/- 2.22 x 14.18 +/- 1.89 microm (mean of 100) and sporulated already within 60 h.

Exogenous and endogenous stages of Eimeria perforans naturally infected rabbits in Saudi Arabia were described. The prevalence of infection was 75%. Oocysts were ovoid to elliptical and measured 16 × 10 μm. The four dizoic sporocysts were ovoid and measured 7 × 5 μm. Endogenous stages were restricted to the duodenum. Meronts, microgamonts, macrogamonts and young oocysts were recorded and described.
