Title

Molecular Evidence on Theileria annulata Infection and Ixodid Ticks Infestation in the Cattle of Kurdistan Province, West of Iran

Pages

  50-55

Abstract

 Background: Bovine theileriosis is an important disease in Iran and throughout the world with economic losses in Iranian Cattle husbandry. The aim of the current study was to determine the prevalence and geographic distribution of Theileria annulata infection in Cattle and the diversity of Ixodid ticks species in Kurdistan province, located in the west of Iran. Methods: In general, 193 blood samples were randomly taken from the jugular vein. Ixodid ticks were also collected from the body surface of examined Cattle in three sub-areas of the region (i. e., north, center, and south). Eventually, genomic DNA was extracted and the polymerase chain reaction was performed to amplify a 721-bp-long fragment of the 30 kDa major merozoite surface antigen of T. annulata. Results: The overall prevalence was 50. 2% (97/193) with lymphadenopathy (54. 4%) and petechia in the mucosal membrane (95%) of cross-breed Cattle (24. 9%) aged <3 year(s) in the north part of the region (82%). Of all Cattle infected with T. annulata, 9. 3% (18/193) were infested with a total of 147 unfed Ixodid ticks, and Ixodid ticks indices were 0. 76. In addition, 8 species of the Ixodid ticks of two genera, namely, Hyalomma (52. 9%) and Rhipicephalus (23. 3%) were identified, and finally, the predominant infesting tick in all examined Cattle was R. sanguineus (12%, 23/193) in the south area of the region. Conclusions: The results revealed that T. annulata infection was prevalent and Ixodid ticks abundance, geographic distribution, and the variety of species were extensively observed in this part of Iran.
