Pathogenicity of Eimeria mulardi Chauve et al., 1994 in experimentally infected mule-ducks. Precision on pathological stages The pathogenicity of Eimeria mulardi has been studied in mule-ducklings orally inoculated with sporulated oocysts. With two dose levels (10(5) or 10(6) oocysts per bird), a significant loss of body-weight was observed, whereas no loss of weight was observed with a dose level of 10(4). With a dose of 10(6) oocysts per bird, inflammatory and haemorrhagic changes associated with obstruction mainly involving the end of the jejunum, the ileum and the caeca were seen from day 5 post-inoculation. Pathogenicity of Eimeria mulardi is due to the last generation of meronts and essentially to gamonts.
1994年肖夫等人发现的穆氏艾美耳球虫对实验感染骡鸭的致病性。病理阶段的详述 已在经口接种有孢子化卵囊的骡鸭雏中研究了穆氏艾美耳球虫的致病性。采用两个剂量水平（每只鸟10⁵或10⁶个卵囊）时，观察到体重显著减轻，而采用10⁴的剂量水平时未观察到体重减轻。每只鸟接种10⁶个卵囊的剂量时，从接种后第5天起可见与阻塞相关的炎症和出血变化，主要累及空肠末端、回肠和盲肠。穆氏艾美耳球虫的致病性归因于最后一代裂殖体，主要是配子体。
