Abstract excerpt

Babesia bovis is a causal agent of bovine babesiosis, a disease which leads to mortality and morbidity and impacts the cattle industry worldwide. We amplified, cloned and sequenced the B. bovis merozoite surface antigen-2b (msa-2b) gene (∼940 bp) and the near full-length 18S rRNA gene (∼1600 bp) from cattle samples from South Africa and Mozambique to determine sequence variation between B. bovis parasites in the...
