Studies were conducted to determine whether Heterakis bonasae eggs from bobwhite quail infected with Histomonas meleagridis would transmit histomoniasis to turkeys. Fifteen helminth-free bobwhites were inoculated per os with embryonated H. bonasae eggs. Each bobwhite was then infected with H. meleagridis via rectal inoculation. Bobwhites that developed cecal lesions rarely retained mature H. bonasae. H. bonasae eggs recovered from bobwhites exposed to or known to have concurrent H. meleagridis infections were inoculated per os to eleven helminth-free turkeys. None of the turkeys developed H. meleagridis infections.
开展了多项研究，以确定感染火鸡组织滴虫的北美鹑体内的波氏异刺线虫卵是否会将组织滴虫病传播给火鸡。给15只无蠕虫的北美鹑经口接种波氏异刺线虫的胚胎卵。然后通过直肠接种使每只北美鹑感染火鸡组织滴虫。出现盲肠病变的北美鹑很少保留成熟的波氏异刺线虫。从暴露于或已知同时感染火鸡组织滴虫的北美鹑体内回收的波氏异刺线虫卵经口接种到11只无蠕虫的火鸡体内。没有一只火鸡发生火鸡组织滴虫感染。
