  • Title: Prevalence and pathology of helminth parasites in domestic ducks of Bangladesh.
    Author: Islam MR, Shaikh H, Baki MA.
    Journal: Vet Parasitol; 1988 Jul; 29(1):73-7. PubMed ID: 3176302.
    Abstract:
    Parasitism in waterfowl is a very common phenomenon. Two detailed check lists of helminth parasites of waterfowl are available (Lapage, 1961; McDonald, 1969) and many of these parasites are reported to occur in domestic ducks. However, the pathological significance of most of them is unclear. In a preliminary study, Qadir (1979) recorded 13 species of helminths from domestic ducks of Bangladesh. The present paper reports on the prevalence and pathological effects of helminth infections in domestic ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) of Bangladesh under natural conditions and on their incidence in two age and sex groups of ducks.
