Toxoplasma gondiiantibodies in house sparrows(Passer domesticus)and tree sparrows(P. montanus)

Abstract
Synanthropic sparrows in Poland and the Czech Republic were tested for Toxoplasma gondii antibodies by an indirect fluorescent antibody test (titre>/=10). T. gondii antibodies were demonstrated in 12.3% of 227 house sparrows (Passer domesticus) and 4.9% of 41 tree sparrows (Passer montanus).
