Is prevalence of blood parasites in birds related to host ecological traits? An assemblage-wide study in northern Colombia

"The prevalence of blood parasites in bird assemblages is associated with ecological and evolutionary factors, such as traits of host species that may increase the exposure to the vectors transmitting parasites. We tested the role of four host life-history traits (foraging strata, nesting strat...

We tested the role of four host life-history traits (foraging strata, nesting strata, nest type, and flocking behavior) in explaining the variation in prevalence in bird species from montane forests of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, northern Colombia. We assessed parasite infections in 728 individuals belonging to 93 bird species and 25 families by examining thin blood smears and through molecular screening. Overall prevalence was 25.2%, with Haemoproteus being the most prevalent parasite (9.48% of the infected individuals) closely followed by Plasmodium (8.38%). Prevalences of Leucocytozoon and microfilariae were 7.01 % and 4.12%, respectively. Haemoproteus infected mostly the avian families Emberizidae, Parulidae, and Thraupidae whereas Leucocytozoon and microfilariae infected a wider range of families." -- Tomado del Formato de Documento de Grado."La prevalencia de parásitos sanguíneos en comunidades de aves está asociada con factores ecológicos y evolutivos tales como los rasgos de las especies hospederas, los cuales pueden incrementar la exposición a los vectores transmisores de parásitos. Pusimos a prueba el rol de cuatro rasgos de historia de vida (estrato de forrajeo, estrato del nido, tipo de nido y comportamiento de forrajeo) en explicar la variación de la prevalencia en especies de aves de bosques montanos de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, en el Norte de Colombia. Analizamos infecciones parasíticas en 728 individuos pertenecientes a 93 especies de aves y 25 familias, examinando extendidos sanguíneos y empleando detección molecular. La prevalencia general fue de 25.2%, siendo Haemoproteus el parásito más prevalente (9.48% de los individuos infectados), seguido de cerca por Plasmodium (8.38%). Las prevalencias de Leucocytozoon y de microfilarias fueron 7.01% y 4.12%, respectivamente.
