Molecular detection of tick‐borne pathogens in bovine blood and ticks from Khentii, Mongolia

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 67, Issue S2, Page 111-118, July 2020., 2020
Abstract Recent studies reported the detection of DNA from tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) of veterinary relevance such as Anaplasma marginale, Babesia bigemina, Babesia bovis and Theileria orientalis in bovine blood samples from Mongolia. These findings were unexpected, as the known tick vectors of these pathogens are not known to occur in Mongolia.
