Journal Article
Hinsu, A. T., Thakkar, J. R., Koringa, P. G., Vrba, V., Jakhesara, S. J., Psifidi, A., …Blake, D. P. (in press). Illumina next generation sequencing for the analysis of Eimeria populations in commercial broilers and indigenous chickens. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2018.00176

Eimeria species parasites can cause the enteric disease coccidiosis, most notably in chickens where the economic and welfare implications are significant. Seven Eimeria species are recognized to infect chickens, although understanding of their region...
