Molecular characterization and genetic diversity of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina of cattle in Thailand [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Babesia bovis and B. bigemina are the most common tick-borne parasites that cause bovine babesiosis which effects livestock production, leading to economic losses in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. The aims of this study were to determine the molecular detection, genetic diversity and antigenicity prediction of B.

Prevalence of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina in Mali
World Journal of Biology Pharmacy and Health Sciences, 2023 This study, carried out between June 2019 and September 2020 in the localities of Kadiolo, Dioïla and Diéma, aimed to determine the prevalence of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina. It involved blood analysis of 648 cattle samples (327 females and 321 males) and tick collection for Babesia bigemina and Babesia bovis parasites and their vectors.
