Endogenous development of Hemolivia mauritanica (Apicomplexa : Adeleina : Haemogregarinidae) in the marginated tortoise Testudo marginata (Reptilia : Testudinidae): evidence from experimental infection

Original language description

Six young tortoises Testudo marginata Schoepff, 1792 were experimentally infected with Hemolivia mauritanica (Sergent et Sergent, 1904). The prepatent period ranged from 6 to 8 weeks. Young, smaller, club-like forms (6?9 x 3?6 ?m) of gametocytes appearedin the peripheral blood first, whereas mature, elongated, cylindrical forms (9?12 x 5?7 ?m) were detected after 1?2 weeks and predominated during later patency. Three of the infected tortoises were euthanized and dissected to study the endogenous stages. Meronts occurred in the cells of the reticulo-endothelial system and in the erythrocytes; these were observed mostly in parenchymatous organs. Mature forms measured 14.2 x 9.3 ?m and contained 7?12 merozoites. Cysts with two (exceptionally one) cystozoites were also found predominantly in parenchymatous organs and measured 14.8 x 7.9 ?m. Pathological changes attributable to Hemolivia were mild and limited to liver and kidneys. The role of individual developmental stages of

Endogenní vývoj Hemolivia mauritanica (Apicomplexa : Adeleina : Haemogregarinidae) v želvě vroubené Testudo marginata (Reptilia : Testudinidae): evidence z experimentalní infekce

Czech description

6 želv Testudo marginala Schoepff, 1792 bylo experimentálně infikováno Hemolivia mauritanica (Sergent et Sergent, 1904). prepatentní perioda kolísala mezi 6 a 8 týdny. Mladé formy gametocytů (6-9 x 3-6 ?m) předcházely dospělým protáhlým formám (9-12 x 5-7 ?m) které byly detekovány po 1-2 týdnech. Tři želvy byly utraceny pro studium endogenního vývoje Dospělí meronti meřili 14.2 x 9.3 ?m a obsahovali 7-12 merozoites. Cysty se dvěma (vyjímečně jedním) cystozoity byly nalézány především v parenchymatózníchorgánech a měřily 14.8 x 7.9 ?m. Úloha jednotlivých stadií ve vývojovém cyklu hemogregarin je diskutována s ohledem na evoluci heteroxenního vývoje hemogregarin.
