Molecular detection and characterization of a novel Theileria genotype in Dama Gazelle (Nanger dama)
Wild animals play a critical role in maintenance and transmission of various tick-borne pathogens. It is essential to identify these wild host species that can serve as important reservoirs of tickborne diseases. In the present study we investigated Dama
