Abstract
⺠First study to genetically characterize Eimeria sequences from a range of macropod hosts. ⺠A total of 25 new Eimeria sequences from macropods representing potentially 6 or more species of Eimeria were generated. ⺠A molecular phylogeny of marsupial-derived Eimeria constructed. ⺠Supports the hypothesis that Eimeria found in marsupials diverged prior to Eimeria from placental mammals.
