Abstract excerpt
Benign Theileria species distributed in China and Korea were characterized by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR), based on the sequences of major immunodominant piroplasm surface protein genes. In China, all the isolates contained Chitose (C) type parasites. One out of 5 isolates tested was a mixed population of Ikeda (I), C and B-2 types, whereas, all the isolates from Korea consisted of I type...
