Susceptibility and carrier status of impala, sable and tsessebe for Cowdria ruminantium infection (heartwater)
Three species of wild African ruminants. impala (Aepyceros melampus), sable (Hippotragus equinus, and tsessebe (Damaliscus lunatus), were experimentally inoculated with in vitro culture-derived Cowdria ruminantium organisms, the tick-borne causative agent of heartwater in domestic ruminants, to dete...
