Exposure of vaccinated and naive cattle to natural challenge from buffalo-derived Theileria parva
Integrative management of wildlife and livestock requires a clear understanding of the diseases transmitted between the two populations. The tick-borne protozoan parasite Theileria parva causes two distinct diseases in cattle, East Coast fever and Corridor disease, following infection with parasites derived from cattle or buffalo, respectively. In this study, cattle were immunized with a live s...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of Theileria parva field strains derived from Cattle and Buffalo sympatric populations of Northern Tanzania
East coast fever is a disease of cattle caused by Theileria parva and is transmitted by the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus. Buffalos are a natural reservoir of the parasite. The objectives of this study were to determine the T. parva infection in buffalo and cattle field samples, to identify genotypes of T. parva infecting cattle and buffalo and finally to investigate the presence of buffalo...
متن کاملThe African buffalo parasite Theileria. sp. (buffalo) can infect and immortalize cattle leukocytes and encodes divergent orthologues of Theileria parva antigen genes
African Cape buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is the wildlife reservoir of multiple species within the apicomplexan protozoan genus Theileria, including Theileria parva which causes East coast fever in cattle. A parasite, which has not yet been formally named, known as Theileria sp. (buffalo) has been recognized as a potentially distinct species based on rDNA sequence, since 1993. We demonstrate using...

متن کاملTheileriosis in South Africa: a brief review
East Coast fever caused by Theileria parva parva has been eradicated from South Africa, but tick-borne infections with other species of Theileria still occur, particularly in cattle and African buffalo (Syncerus caffer). One such infection is Corridor disease caused by T. parva lawrencei, which is controlled by restricting the movement of African buffalo. Other species reviewed are T. parva bov...
