Understanding the basis of parasite strain-restricted immunity to Theileria parva.

Annual review of animal biosciences - 1 Jan 2015

Morrison W Ivan, Connelley Timothy, Hemmink Johanneke D, MacHugh Niall D

Abstract excerpt

Infection with Theileria parva is asymptomatic in African buffalo but results in severe disease in cattle. Currently, vaccination relies on infection and treatment, using a mixture of three parasite isolates to overcome the strain specificity of immunity. Genotypic analyses of field populations of T. parva indicate a panmictic population structure, reflecting frequent sexual recombination. Profound...
