Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Epidemiological surveys of canine and feline parasites, including Babesia and Toxoplasma, were conducted in Myanmar. The results revealed new insights of distribution of Babesia gibsoni and B. canis vogeli in dogs, transmission of Toxoplasma from cats to goats and phylogenetic relationship of B. gibsoni parasites. Wild small mammals were captured and examined for their phylogenetic relationships. Mus species were more genetically variable and two distinct phylogenetic Suncus species may be introduced into Myanmar. In addition, next generation sequence analysis of dog plasma samples from Bangladesh revealed that cell-fee DNA was useful for diagnosis of hemoparasite infections. Although overall understanding of parasites of wild small mammals await further studies, hemoprotozoan parasite infections in dogs were newly detected in Myanmar. The results contribute to understanding of introduction and evolution of the parasites in Indochina.
