CAB Reviews: Perspectives in Agriculture, Veterinary Science, Nutrition and Natural Resources, https://doi.org/10.1186/s43170-021-00056-5

Coccidiosis is a potentially severe enteritis caused by species of obligate intracellular parasites of the genus Eimeria. These parasites cause significant economic losses to the poultry industry, predominantly due to compromised efficiency of produc...
