Molecular detection, prevalence, and phylogenetic characterization of Theileria lestoquardi in goats using conventional PCR and merozoite surface protein gene sequencing in Iraq

Background: Infection with Theileria lestoquardi represents one of the most pathogenic forms of ovine and caprine theileriosis in the Middle East. The disease is transmitted by ixodid ticks, such as Hyalomma anatolicum, and is associated with fever, lymphadenopathy, anemia, and considerable economic losses. Molecular...

Prevalence of Babesia bigemina and Theileria orientalis in Domestic Cattle (Bos taurus) Across the Three Geo-Climatic Zones of Sri Lanka

Theileria orientalis and Babesia bigemina are hemoprotozoan parasites that adversely affect domestic cattle (Bos taurus) productivity and health worldwide. Rapid climatic changes in different geo-climatic zones observed over the past few years may have altered the distribution and transmission of tick-borne pathogens a...

Molecular detection and characterisation of Theileria parva and other Theileria species in cattle-associated ticks from southern Mozambique.

Tick-borne protozoa of the genus Theileria, particularly T. parva, represent a major challenge to cattle production in sub-Saharan Africa. Recent outbreaks clinically ascribable to East Coast fever (ECF) in Maputo Province, southern Mozambique, highlight the need to investigate the occurence of Theileria parva and othe...

Prevalence of Theileria luwenshuni in goats (Capra hircus) on Tarama Island, Okinawa, Japan.

Caprine theileriosis is an economically important tick-borne disease caused by various Theileria species, particularly Theileria lestoquardi, Theileria luwenshuni, and Theileria uilenbergi, in goats (Capra hircus). Goat farming plays an economically and culturally important role on Tarama Island, Okinawa, Japan. Becaus...
