Ayres,Dina María Beltrán Zapa,João Eduardo Nicaretta,Luiz Fellipe Monteiro Couto,Luciana Maffini Heller,Thiago Souza Azeredo Bastos,Breno Cayeiro Cruz,Vando Edésio Soares,Weslen Fabricio Pires Teixeira,Juliana Silva de Oliveira,Juliana Torres Tomazi Fritzen,Amauri Alcindo Alfieri,Roberta Lemos Freire,Welber Daniel Zanetti Lopes +14 more
TL;DR: The results found in this study highlight the importance of studying the agents of diarrhea together, once they act as coinfection where the losses triggered for the owners will involve some of these agents simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI

João Eduardo Nicaretta,Dina María Beltrán Zapa,Luiz Fellipe Monteiro Couto,Luciana Maffini Heller,Alliny Souza de Assis Cavalcante,Leonardo Bueno Cruvinel,Rubens Dias de Melo Júnior,Lorena Lopes Ferreira,Rafael Moreira do Nascimento,Vando Edésio Soares,Lígia Miranda Ferreira Borges,Caio Márcio de Oliveira Monteiro,Welber Daniel Zanetti Lopes +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the seasonal dynamics of Rhipicephalus microplus in a Cerrado biome of midwestern Brazil (Goiânia, Goias) and correlated the current climatic conditions (environmental temperature, insolation, rainfall, relative humitidy and saturation deficit of the atmosphere) of this site with 30 years ago.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of rotational grazing as a control strategy for Rhipicephalus microplus in a tropical region.

TL;DR: Rhipicephalus microplus is the most significant tick of livestock and its control is particularly challenging due to its resistance to commercial acaricides and little is known about the effects of this practice in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiological and molecular identification of Trypanosoma vivax diagnosed in cattle during outbreaks in central Brazil.
Thiago Souza Azeredo Bastos,Adriana Marques Faria,Luiz Fellipe Monteiro Couto,João Eduardo Nicaretta,Alliny Souza de Assis Cavalcante,Dina María Beltrán Zapa,Lorena Lopes Ferreira,Luciana Maffini Heller,Darling Melany de Carvalho Madrid,Leonardo Bueno Cruvinel,Gabriel Augusto Marques Rossi,Vando Edésio Soares,Fabiano Antonio Cadioli,Welber Daniel Zanetti Lopes +13 more
TL;DR: The epidemiological data demonstrate the importance of restricting the practice of auctions as well as eliminating the use of exogenous oxytocin in animals during milking, and both molecular and phylogenetical analyses of T. vivax are performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infection capacity of Trypanosoma vivax experimentally inoculated through different routes in bovines with latent Anaplasma marginale
Thiago Souza Azeredo Bastos,Adriana Marques Faria,Alliny Souza de Assis Cavalcante,Darling Melany de Carvalho Madrid,Dina María Beltrán Zapa,João Eduardo Nicaretta,Leonardo Bueno Cruvinel,Luciana Maffini Heller,Luiz Fellipe Monteiro Couto,Daniel de Castro Rodrigues,Lorena Lopes Ferreira,Vando Edésio Soares,Fabiano Antonio Cadioli,Welber Daniel Zanetti Lopes +13 more
TL;DR: The results indicated that T. vivax was capable of infecting and developing the disease in the calves independent of the inoculation route, and this protozoan should be included in the complex denominated "Bovine Parasitic Sadness", which currently encompasses only Anaplasma and Babesia.
