Host-Specific Circulation and Molecular Diversity of Babesia, Hepatozoon and Bartonella Species Among Wild Carnivores in Northwestern Italy

Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) represent a concern for animal and public health, and wildlife surveillance is valuable for their monitoring. The occurrence, molecular diversity and host distribution of tick-borne protozoa (TBP: Babesia spp., Theileria spp. and Hepatozoon spp.) and...

Tick-Borne Pathogens in Wild Cervids from Poland: A Molecular Survey on Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Piroplasms

Tick-borne diseases (TBDs) are important infections affecting animal health, and some are zoonotic. Understanding the distribution of TBDs in wildlife is important to evaluate the role of wild animals in the maintenance and spread of tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) in natural ecosyst...
