Heartwater is a severe tick-borne, non-contagious disease of ruminant livestock caused by the rickettsia Cowdria ruminantium, which is endemic in much of sub-Saharan Africa and in the Caribbean. Transmission occurs via ticks of the Amblyomma genus, primarily A. variegatum and A. hebraeum. Intense...

Heartwater, caused by the rickettsial organism Cowdria ruminantium and transmitted by ticks of the genus Amblyomma, is considered to be the most important tick-borne disease of cattle in southern Africa, and is second only in importance to East Coast fever (theileriosis) in eastern Africa. This p...

Tick-borne diseases are considered a major constraint to dairy farming among the smallholder dairy farms in Kenya, which account for an estimated 75-90% of all milk produced in the country. The most important tick-borne disease in Kenya is East Coast fever (ECF) caused by Theileria parva and tran...
