Abstract excerpt
Twenty-eight field isolated Theileria parasite DNAs obtained from dairy and beef cattle in distinct geographical areas of Thailand were characterized by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification with six sets of oligonucleotide primers. Three sets of them were modified from two genes of immunodominant major piroplasm surface protein (MPSP) coding for 32 kDa (p32) of T. sergenti and 33/34 kDa (p33/34) of...
