Identification of novel Babesia and Theileria species in South African giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis, Linnaeus, 1758) and roan antelope (Hippotragus equinus, Desmarest 1804)

Oosthuizen, Marinda C.; Allsopp, Basil A.; Troskie, Milana; Collins, Nicola E.; Penzhorn, Barend Louis (Elsevier, 2009-07)

Blood specimens were received from five cases in which young adult giraffe, from different geographic origins in South Africa, showed sudden onset of disease and subsequently died. Additional specimens from two translocated ...
Identification of Theileria parva and Theileria sp. (buffalo) 18S rRNA gene sequence variants in the African Buffalo (Syncerus caffer) in Southern Africa

Chaisi, Mamohale E.; Sibeko-Matjila, Kgomotso Penelope; Collins, Nicola E.; Potgieter, Fred T.; Oosthuizen, Marinda C. (Elsevier, 2011-12)

Theileria parva is the causative agent of Corridor disease in cattle in South Africa. The African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is the reservoir host, and, as these animals are important for eco-tourism in South Africa, it ...
A novel Babesia sp. associated with clinical signs of babesiosis in domestic cats in South Africa

Bosman, Anna-Mari; Penzhorn, Barend Louis; Brayton, Kelly A.; Schoeman, Tanya; Oosthuizen, Marinda C. (BioMed Central, 2019-03-26)

BACKGROUND : Feline babesiosis, sporadically reported from various countries, is of major clinical significance in South Africa, particularly in certain coastal areas. Babesia felis, B. leo, B. lengau and B. microti have ...
The Piroplasmida Babesia, Cytauxzoon, and Theileria in farm and companion animals : species compilation, molecular phylogeny, and evolutionary insights

Schnittger, Leonhard; Ganzinelli, Sabrina; Bhoora, Raksha Vasantrai; Omondi, David; Nijhof, Ard M.; Florin-Christensen, Monica (Springer, 2022-05)

The order Piroplasmida, including the genera Babesia, Cytauxzoon, and Theileria is often referred to as piroplasmids and comprises of dixenous hemoprotozoans transmitted by ticks to a mammalian or avian host. Although ...
Sequence heterogeneity in the 18S rRNA gene within Theileria equi and Babesia caballi from horses in South Africa

Bhoora, Raksha Vasantrai; Franssen, Linda; Oosthuizen, Marinda C.; Guthrie, Alan John; Zweygarth, Erich; Penzhorn, Barend Louis; Jongejan, Frans; Collins, Nicola E. (Elsevier, 2009-02)

A molecular epidemiological survey of the protozoal parasites that cause equine piroplasmosis was conducted using samples collected from horses and zebra from different geographical locations in South Africa. A total of ...
Sequence variation identified in the 18S rRNA gene of Theileria mutans and Theileria velifera from the African buffalo (Syncerus caffer)

Chaisi, Mamohale E.; Collins, Nicola E.; Potgieter, Fred T.; Oosthuizen, Marinda C. (Elsevier, 2013-01)

The African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is a natural reservoir host for both pathogenic and nonpathogenic Theileria species. These often occur naturally as mixed infections in buffalo. Although the benign and mildly ...
Tick-borne blood parasites in nyala (Tragelaphus angasii, Gray 1849) from KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

Pfitzer, Silke; Oosthuizen, Marinda C.; Bosman, Anna-Mari; Vorster, Ilse; Penzhorn, Barend Louis (Elsevier, 2011-03)

A total of 97 blood samples of nyala (Tragelaphus angasii, Gray 1849) from South Africa were tested for the presence of tick-borne haemoparasites by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse line blot (RLB) ...
