Migratory Bird Anthology

Bol

Parasitology, as a branch of biology, is concerned with the study of parasites, their hosts, and the interactions between them. In avian biology, parasitology plays a critical role in understanding disease ecology, host behavior, evolutionary processes, and ecosystem health. Migratory birds, due to their wide-ranging movements across biogeographical zones and habitat types, serve both as carriers and victims of a wide variety of parasites. These interactions have far-reaching consequences, not only for bird populations but also for public health, livestock, and the integrity of aquatic ecosystems, especially freshwater lakes.This book has 4 chapters, including:Chapter I: Introduction to Avian ParasitologyChapter 2: Diversity and Classification of Parasites in Migratory BirdsChapter 3: Future Perspectives and Emerging Technologies in Avian ParasitologyChapter 4: The Role of Host Immunity and Immunogenetics in Parasite Resistance of Migratory Birds in Lake Ecosystems and References.
