Molecular Detection, Epidemiology and Genetic Diversity of Babesia microti Infecting Wild Rodents
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.Blood samples from 284 rodents captured across seven districts of Pakistan were screened for Babesia microti using 18S rRNA PCR. Overall prevalence was 12%, with infection detected in Rattus rattus, Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus. Phylogenetic analysis showed close similarity with global isolates.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 582-594, September 2026.Amblyomma sculptum showed a plasmatocyte‐dominant haemocyte profile. Beauveria bassiana increased plasmatocytes and reduced granulocytes, whereas Metarhizium robertsii did not cause significant changes. Amblyomma americanum showed a granulocyte‐dominant haemocyte profile. Beauveria bassiana reduced total haemocytes and granulocytes. B.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Hepatozoon canis causes significant clinical disease even at low parasitaemia and induces chronic subclinical anaemia and inflammation in dogs. Lack of tick control is the main modifiable risk factor. Molecular diagnosis is far more sensitive than microscopy, challenging the traditional view that disease severity depends solely on parasite burden ...
