TL;DR: An extensive survey to determine the prevalence and geographical distribution of A. ovis infections in goats and ticks as well as possible relationships with anaemia and other health indicators showed a relatively high genetic diversity of the pathogen associated with high bacterial prevalence in goats.

Molecular investigation and phylogeny of Anaplasmataceae species infecting domestic animals and ticks in Corsica, France
Mustapha Dahmani,Bernard Davoust,Djamel Tahir,Didier Raoult,Florence Fenollar,Oleg Mediannikov +5 more
TL;DR: This study is the first epidemiological survey on Anaplasmataceae species infecting animals and ticks in Corsica and contributes toward the identification of current Anapl as well as potentially new species circulating in CorsICA.

First molecular identification and genetic characterization of Anaplasma ovis in sheep from Tunisia
Hanène Belkahia,Mourad Ben Said,Sihem El Hamdi,Mouna Yahiaoui,Mohamed Gharbi,Monia Daaloul-Jedidi,Moez Mhadhbi,Mohamed Jedidi,Mohamed Aziz Darghouth,Imen Klabi,Lilia Zribi,Lilia Messadi +11 more
TL;DR: The results indicate the presence of A. ovis at a high rate; hence, the need for a survey into the medical and economic impact of the disease, and the identification of vectors of this bacterium in Tunisia must be made.

Journal ArticleDOI
Reorganization of genera in the families Rickettsiaceae and Anaplasmataceae in the order Rickettsiales: unification of some species of Ehrlichia with Anaplasma, Cowdria with Ehrlichia and Ehrlichia with Neorickettsia, descriptions of six new species combinations and designation of Ehrlichia equi and 'HGE agent' as subjective synonyms of Ehrlichia phagocytophila.
J. S. Dumler,Anthony F. Barbet,C. P.J. Bekker,G. A. Dasch,G. H. Palmer,Stuart C. Ray,Y. Rikihisa,F. R. Rurangirwa +7 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that all members of the tribes Ehrlichieae and Wolbachieae be transferred to the family Anaplasmataceae and that the tribe structure of the family Rickettsiaceae be eliminated.

Infectious diseases of livestock
J. A. W. Coetzer,R. C. Tustin +1 more
TL;DR: This second edition of this book has significantly expanded contents that include the majority of the infectious diseases of livestock that occur world-wide.

Simultaneous detection of bovine Theileria and Babesia species by reverse line blot hybridization.
J. M. Gubbels,A. P. de Vos,M. van der Weide,J. Viseras,L. M. Schouls,E. de Vries,Frans Jongejan +6 more
TL;DR: The RLB is a versatile technique for simultaneous detection of all bovine tick-borne protozoan parasites and recommend its use for integrated epidemiological monitoring oftick-borne disease, since RLB can also be used for screening ticks and can easily be expanded to include additional hemoparasite species.

Human granulocytic ehrlichiosis in the upper Midwest United States. A new species emerging
Johan S. Bakken,J. Stephen Dumler,Sheng Min Chen,Mark R. Eckman,Linda Van Etta,David H. Walker +5 more
TL;DR: All 12 patients have been infected with a granulocytic Ehrlichia species, reflecting a recently described new disease entity, and early detection and treatment with tetracycline drugs appear to offer the best chance for complete recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Babesia--a historical overview.
TL;DR: The classical differences with the main other genus of non-pigment-forming hemoparasites, Theileria, are the absence of extra-erythrocytic multiplication (schizogony) in Babesia and the cycle in the vector tick, which includes transovarial transmission in babesia but only transstadial transmission in TheILeria.
