Abstract

SUMMARY The responses of 3 strains of Eimeria acervulina and 4 strains of Eimeria tenella to a number of compounds were examined and showed that different strains of the same species vary in their drug susceptibility. The drug-antagonist relationship between sulphaquinoxaline and p-amino-benzoic acid in infections with a sulphonamide-resistant strain of E. acervulina appeared to be different from that of 2 sensitive strains. The results of tests in which strains of the same species were passaged together in un-medicated birds were consistent with a retention of their separate identities.
