Abstract

The parasites of the genus Eimeria (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) are among the most common in rabbits. We use non-invasive molecular biological methods to determine the species of the genus Eimeria and confirmed the existence of five species in experimental infected domestic rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). We consider that the obtained results could be used for species identification of parasites of the genus Eimeria in mixed populations.
