背景资料：已经报道了在鸟类和蜥蜴种类的疟原虫（顶复门，血孢子虫属）中以及在感染不同灵长类物种的那些中的宿主转换的病例。然而，没有证据表明，以前被发现为主机之间的野生鸟类和哺乳动物。方法：本文介绍了从马达加斯加和柬埔寨的野生捕获蝙蝠的血液寄生虫的采样结果。血孢子虫感染在这些动物的存在被证实和细胞色素B基因序列被用来构建一个系统发育分析结果：结果显示至少有三个不同的和独立的血孢子虫进化历史在三个不同的蝙蝠谱系从马达加斯加和Cambodia.Conclusion：系统发育分析强烈建议多宿主转换血孢子虫寄生在蝙蝠与那些从鸟类和灵长类宿主。
Background: There have been reported cases of host- switching in avian and lizard species of Plasmodium (Apicomplexa, Haemosporidia), as well as in those infecting different primate species. However, no evidence has previously been found for host-swapping between wild birds and mammals.Methods: This paper presents the results of the sampling of blood parasites of wild-captured bats from Madagascar and Cambodia. The presence of Haemosporidia infection in these animals is confirmed and cytochrome b gene sequences were used to construct a phylogenetic analysis.Results: Results reveal at least three different and independent Haemosporidia evolutionary histories in three different bat lineages from Madagascar and Cambodia.Conclusion: Phylogenetic analysis strongly suggests multiple host-switching of Haemosporidia parasites in bats with those from avian and primate hosts.
