Characterization of Eimeria Species in Commercial Broilers by PCR Based on ITS1 Regions of rDNA.

Abstract

The present study is the first on the prevalence of Eimeria species in Khuzestan, based on the molecular findings. We believe that traditional methods are not sufficiently reliable for specific diagnosis of Eimeria species in chickens and PCR based amplification of DNA sequence of parasite, could resolve this problem.
