Article Synopsis
- Trichomonas gallinae is a common protozoan parasite affecting birds and causing avian trichomonosis, with this study focusing on its prevalence and genetic diversity in birds in Tehran, Iran.
- Out of 100 birds examined, 12% were infected: 23.3% of feral pigeons, 7.5% of budgerigars, and 6.66% of finches were found to have the parasite.
- Genetic analysis identified two similar sequences from the ITS2 region and revealed three distinct subtypes through the Fe-hydrogenase gene, suggesting a more complex population structure of T. gallinae and insights into how it adapts to different bird hosts.
Infection with is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in humans. The prevalence of infection in Iran has been reported 0.009-8 % depending on deferent socio-cultural conditions.
