dc.description.abstractThe monograph focuses on T. parva and ECF which cause tropical theileriosis. East coast fever (ECF) is considered to be the most economically devastating tick-borne disease of cattle in Africa due to mortality, morbidity and production losses. Indirectly it also impacts other economic aspects, affecting agriculture, mining and commerce, all of which still used ox-drawn transport. The paper presents detailed information on the incidence, prevalence and etiology of the disease, as well as current vaccination possibilities. A new research consortium is working on improvement of the ITM Muguga cocktail (current vaccine) and also new generation vaccines.en
