Article Synopsis
- The study investigates recent outbreaks of oriental theileriosis caused by Theileria orientalis in Karnataka, India, which resulted in fatalities among both crossbred and indigenous bulls, highlighting increased morbidity from emerging genotypes of the pathogen.
- Blood smears showed T. orientalis piroplasms, and genetic tests identified different genotypes, including Type A and Type E, as well as specific genotypes in crossbred cows and indigenous bulls, indicating significant genetic diversity.
- Hematological tests revealed low calcium and hemoglobin levels, suggesting severe disease effects, while the study emphasizes the need for further epidemiological research to understand the distribution and impact of various genotypes.
In this study, the molecular survey of cattle ticks and tick-borne pathogens in various agroclimatic zones in Karnataka and Kerala states, India, and phylogenetic analysis of gene sequences were accomplished. Overall, 240 pooled tick DNA samples from two states were used for the identification of three tick genera and nine tick-borne pathogens by using the PCR method and sequencing. The distribution of Haemaphysalis (Ha.

The SCM and CM prevalence studies reported during 1967-2019 were collected, reviewed, and a meta-analysis was done in R-Software. A total of 222 and 150 studies from the World and 103 and 37 studies from India on SCM and CM, respectively were included.
