Molecular detection of Theileria species and Babesia caballi from horses in Nigeria. [PDF]

Parasitol Res, 2020
AbstractEquine piroplasmosis (EP) is an infectious, tick-borne disease caused by the hemoprotozoan parasites, Theileria equi, Babesia caballi, and a recently reported new species, T. haneyi. Infections by these apicomplexan parasites limit performance and cause economic losses for the horse industry.

Seroprevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in horses in Spain. [PDF]

Parasite, 2017
Equine piroplasmoses are enzootic parasitic diseases distributed worldwide with high incidence in tropical and subtropical regions. In Spain, there is insufficient epidemiological data about equine piroplasmoses. The main aim of the present study was therefore to estimate the prevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in five regions and obtain ...
