| Abstract: | Cattle (from 5 sites in Louisiana) were examined by blood culture for the presence of Trypanosoma theileri. A prevalence of 81% was found in the 291 cattle examined. A greater number of beef cattle (93%) than dairy cattle (73%) was infected. Differences in prevalence in cattle from different regions of the state were not noted. |
