The positive rates determined by ELISA (B. bovis and B. bigemina) or PCR (B. bigemina) in the Vietnamese cattle were significantly higher than those found in Thai cattle. Some PCR-positive Vietnamese animals were ELISA-negative, whereas all PCR-positive Thai cattle were ELISA-positive, suggesting that the animals were infected in Thailand. Importing Babesia-infected cattle may lead to the introduction of new parasite strains, possibly compromising the development of anti-Babesia immune control strategies in Vietnam. © 2018 The Japanese Society of Veterinary Science.}, pages = {333--336}, title = {Serological and molecular surveys of babesia bovis and babesia bigemina among native cattle and cattle imported from thailand in hue, Vietnam}, volume = {80}, year = {2018} }
