STABLE TRANSFECTION OF EIMERIA INTESTINALIS AND INVESTIGATION OF ITS LIFE CYCLE, REPRODUCTION AND IMMUNOGENICITY

Stable transfection of Eimeria intestinalis and investigation of its life cycle, reproduction and immunogenicity

Rabbit coccidiosis, caused by infection of Eimeria spp.is one of the most severe parasitic diseases in rabbits.E.intestinalis is one of the most immunogenic species in rabbit coccidia.Due to the lack of genomic information and unsuccessful in vitro cultivation, genetic manipulation of rabbit coccidia lagged behind other apicomplexan parasites.Using
