Limited genetic and antigenic diversity within parasite isolates used in a live vaccine against Theileria parva
An infection and treatment protocol is used to vaccinate cattle against *Theileria parva* infection. Due to incomplete cross-protection between different parasite isolates, a mixture of three isolates, termed the Muguga cocktail, is used for vaccination. While vaccination of cattle in some regions p...
