Project description:To understand Babesia gene regulation during tick and mammalian host infection, we performed high throughput RNA-sequencing using samples collected from calves and Rhipicephalus microplus ticks infected with Babesia bigemina. We evaluated gene expression differences between B. bigemina kinetes and blood-stage parasites
Project description:Geographical distinct virulent Babesia bovis strains have similar gene expression changes as they go through attenuation. Pair end RNA-sequencing reads on three biological replicate sample pairs of virulent parent and attenuated derivative Babesia bovis strain isolated in Argentina.
