Theileria parva: a parasite of African buffalo, which has adapted to infect and undergo transmission in cattle.

International journal for parasitology - 1 May 2020

Morrison W Ivan, Hemmink Johanneke D, Toye Philip G

Abstract excerpt

The tick-borne protozoan parasite Theileria parva causes an acute, often fatal disease in cattle throughout a large part of eastern and southern Africa. Infection of African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is also widespread in this region but does not cause clinical disease in this species. This difference most likely reflects the evolutionary history of the parasites in these species, in that cattle were only...
