30 gru 2019 · Babesia are intraerythrocytic protozoan parasites from the phylum Apicomplexa, order Piroplasmida. More than 100 species of Babesia exist, affecting domestic animals (cattle, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, dogs, and cats), wildlife, and, occasionally, humans.
The term "Babesiosis" refers to the subclinical and chronic infections that usually persist after the parasite has been attacked. Clinically, the chronic type is characterised by anaemia and varying weight loss. From an economic standpoint, Babesiosis has greatest impact on cattle.

Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne parasitic disease that results in significant morbidity and mortality in cattle. The economic losses can be considerable, especially when animals with no immunity are moved into an endemic area.
Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease of cattle caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Babesia, order Piroplasmida, phylum Apicomplexa, and including Babesia bovis, B. bigemina and B. divergens.
Bovine babesiosis is caused by Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina. These are protozoal blood cell parasites that mainly infect cattle. Other wild and domestic animals have shown to be infected by PCR (testing for DNA) but do not seem to be sources (reservoirs) for new infections.
