Molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis of Toxocara vitulorum in feces and milk samples from naturally infected water buffaloes.

Toxocara vitulorum infects cattle and water buffalo, leading to mild to severe infection in calves and has wide geographic distributions, especially in tropical and subtropical countries. This work aimed to assess the prevalence, distributions, and phylogeny of T.vitulorum in water buffaloes in different parts of Sivas, one of the essential buffalo-breeding areas in Türkiye.

Molecular survey of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and related variants in water buffaloes: The first detection of Anaplasma phagocytophilum-like 1.

Anaplasma phagocytophilum infects various hosts and lead to mild to severe infection. Currently, two A.phagocytophilum-related variants have been documented in different countries.

Molecular Survey of and Related Strains in Sheep and Goats from Sivas; with a High Prevalence of -like 1.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate and related strains (-like 1 and like 2) in sheep and goats for the first time in Sivas province with molecular techniques.

Methods: The study material was composed of 247 animal (159 sheep and 88 goats) blood samples from four districts of Sivas province (Sivas City Center, Kangal, Koyulhisar, and Yıldızeli). and related strains were screened with polymerase chain reaction (PCR), PCR-RFLP, and DNA sequence analysis.

The detection and phylogenetic analysis of Anaplasma phagocytophilum-like 1, A. ovis and A. capra in sheep: A. capra divides into two genogroups.

In this study, the presence, prevalence, and genotypes of Anaplasma phagocytophilum, A. ovis, and A. capra in sheep were investigated based on 16 S SSU rRNA, groEL, and gtlA gene-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR), respectively.

Buffaloes as new hosts for Anaplasma capra: Molecular prevalence and phylogeny based on gtlA, groEL, and 16S rRNA genes.

Anaplasma capra is a tick-borne pathogen that was discovered for the first time in goats in China in 2012. The studies carried out from the first detection in China to the present have revealed the presence of this species in eight countries including Angola, France, Iranian, South Korea, Kyrgyzstan, Malaysia, Spain, and Türkiye in three continents (Africa, Asia, and Europe). It has also been determined that humans, sheep, cattle, dog, and wild animals are the hosts of A.

Molecular prevalence of bovine hemoplasmosis in Turkey with first detection of Mycoplasma wenyonii and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos in cattle and water buffalo.

Hemoplasma species can cause infection varying from mild to severe in a wide range of hosts, including cattle and water buffalo. Two hemoplasma species, Mycoplasma wenyonii and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos, have been reported in cattle and water buffalo from different parts of the world to date. There was a lack of information on the presence and distribution of these pathogens in Turkey despite the negative economic impact on livestock production.

Intestinal system helminths of red foxes and molecular characterization Taeniid cestodes.

Red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) are the most prevalent wild carnivores in the world and definitive hosts of many pathogenic parasites for humans and farm animals. These animals travel great distances in search of prey and nests, and cause contamination of large geographic areas with parasites. For this reason, monitoring the parasitic pathogens of red foxes is particularly important in terms of public and animal health.

First Parasitological Data on a Wild Grey Wolf in Turkey with Morphological and Molecular Confirmation of the Parasites.

Introduction: The grey wolf (Canis lupus) is the natural host of many parasites. These animals travel quite long distances to search for prey and nests, causing parasites to spread over large areas; therefore, determination of the parasites carried by grey wolves is important.

Methods: In this study, we used both morphological and molecular methods for parasitological identification of helminth species.
