Abstract

Experimental procedures were devised to determine the mode of transmission of Anaplasma marginale by the cattle tick Boophilus microplus. Transmission of anaplasmosis was achieved by trans-stadial (that is, larvae-to-nymph; nymph-to-adult female; nymph-to-adult male) and intrastadial methods (that is, transfer of the feeding stage at mid-instar from an infected host to a susceptible, splenectomized recipient). Incubation periods with the ticks and A. marginale strains employed ranged from 26 to 47 days.
