Vector‐borne pathogens (VBPs) are frequently identified in domestic dogs, particularly in endemic areas or in individuals lacking protection from anti‐feeding products. Diagnostic procedures in veterinary clinics for symptomatic animals primarily include rapid serological assays; however, more definitive, albeit time‐intensive tests typically require ...

Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora spp. Infections in Arab Horses, Southwest of Iran [PDF]
Background: Because of the economic importance of the Arab race horses and also the role of Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora spp. in abortion and reproductive failure of these animals, we decided to perform this study. Objectives: We designed this study to

Analytic Approaches in Genomic Epidemiological Studies of Parasitic Protozoa
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) plays an important role in the advanced characterization of pathogen transmission and is widely used in studies of major bacterial and viral diseases. Although protozoan parasites cause serious diseases in humans and animals, WGS data on them are relatively scarce due to the large genomes and lack of cultivation techniques
