Avian trichomonosis is a parasitic infection that affects a wide range of avian species, including free-ranging and pet birds worldwide, and Trichomonas gallinaehas been considered as the only causative agent for decades. The sequence of the 5.8S ribosomal RNA with internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions was widely used for identifying genotypes and determining inter-specific and intra-specific diversity. Moreover, the sequence of Fe-hydrogenase (FeHyd) was proposed as the second genetic marker for providing improved resolution of strain subtyping discrimination. Though the correlation between genetic variability and strain virulence is controversial, FeHyd analyses seemed to be useful to investigate the host or geographic origin of isolates. This study aimed to investigate the genetic characteristics of avian Trichomonasspp. |
