The receptivity and susceptibility of the Muscovy duck, the domestic duck, and their hybrid, the mule duck, toward an experimental infection by Eimeria mulardi were studied. To appraise their susceptibility, female ducklings were infected with a dose of 75,000 oocysts per duckling (bringing about a clinical coccidiosis). In another group, to compare the multiplication rates of the parasite in the three species of ducks, thus assessing their receptivity, an infection with 750 oocysts per duckling was realized. Eimeria mulardi develops in the three species of ducks. In each case, a significant decrease in growth in the contaminated group vs. the control group was noted, even though the Muscovy and the mule ducks were more susceptible to the contamination.
研究了番鸭、家鸭及其杂交种骡鸭对穆拉迪艾美耳球虫实验性感染的易感性和敏感性。为评估其易感性，给雌性雏鸭每只接种75000个卵囊剂量（引发临床球虫病）。在另一组中，为比较该寄生虫在三种鸭中的增殖率，从而评估它们的敏感性，给每只雏鸭接种750个卵囊。穆拉迪艾美耳球虫在这三种鸭中均能发育。在每种情况下，均观察到污染组与对照组相比生长显著下降，尽管番鸭和骡鸭对污染更易感。
