This is a first molecular report investigate the phylogenic analysis of Theileria spp. in sheep and it's infested ticks Mosul city-Iraq. A total 185 blood samples were collected from different areas city. sixty five Ixodid also parts infected animals. The overall prevalence was 52.4% (97 out 185), for ovis it 9.7%, lestoquardi 20% mixed infection 22.7% city, based on conventional-PCR multiplex-...

BACKGROUND The present study was designed to detect the presence of tick-borne parasites (Theileria and Babesia spp.) in 196 blood samples collected from apparently healthy sheep and goats from two provinces, Punjab and Khyber Pukhtoon Khwa, in Pakistan. METHODS Reverse line blot (RLB) assay was applied for the parasitic detection by the amplification of hypervariable V4 region of the 18S rib...

Distribution of Anaplasma spp., Babesia spp., Theileria spp., and Ehrlichia ruminantium, was for the first time studied in Bié Province, central Angola. We examined 76 blood samples of cattle originated from seven farms, and 13 blood samples of goats from two farms employing molecular genetic tools (PCR). Most prevalent was A. ovis-infection in goats (100%) and A. marginale-infection in cattle ...

BACKGROUND Only limited information is currently available on the prevalence of vector borne and zoonotic pathogens in dogs and ticks in Nigeria. The aim of this study was to use molecular techniques to detect and characterize vector borne pathogens in dogs and ticks from Nigeria. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Blood samples and ticks (Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Rhipicephalus turanicus and Hea...

background: babesia is blood-tissue parasite, which are transmitted by hard ticks from ixodidae family. the parasite is the cause of babesiosis among ruminants. babesia is as one of main fatal factors among livestock in endemic regions such as iran. the aim of this study was to investigate babesia spp infection using microscopic and molecular methods among small ruminants in mazandaran and gole...

N. GUNES, D. ARSOY, M. AKTAS, S. OZUBEK, M. OZUICLI, L. AYDIN and O. SELCUK, 2016. Changes in some biochemical parameters in small ruminant theileriosis. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 22: 303–307 The aim of this study was to determine changes in some biochemical parameters in the healthy and infected sheeps and goats with Theileriosis. Sixty-fi ve sheep and 67 goats were used in the study. Blood sample...

Theileria equi has a biphasic life cycle in horses, with a period of intraleukocyte development followed by patent erythrocytic parasitemia that causes acute and sometimes fatal hemolytic disease. Unlike Theileria spp. that infect cattle (Theileria parva and Theileria annulata), the intraleukocyte stage (schizont) of Theileria equi does not cause uncontrolled host cell proliferation or other si...
