The ultrastructural appearance of first-generation schizonts of Eimeria adenoeides was markedly altered in turkey poults fed 0.0125% amprolium-medicated feed. When compared with development seen in unmedicated control birds 48-72 hr postinoculation (PI), most of the schizonts present in the medicated birds were fragmented, contained enlarged nuclei, had swollen endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, and showed no budding of merozoites. Other schizonts were almost completely degenerated and contained pyknotic nuclei, dense cytoplasm, and large intracytoplasmic vacuoles containing membrane whorls or lipid droplets. A few mature schizonts were seen in the medicated poults, and these did not appear to differ ultrastructurally from those seen in unmedicated control birds. Ultrastructurally normal second-generation schizonts and the sexual stages were also seen in small numbers in the medicated turkey poults 72-120 hr PI. Mature sexual stages were seen much earlier in medicated turkeys--at 96 hr PI--than in the unmedicated poults.
