Abstract

"Anaplasmosis is an infectious disease of adult cattle caused by the organism Anaplasma marginale, which invades the red blood cells. Ticks are the only proven biological vector, or the only host that is necessary for the organism to complete its life cycle. Ticks are not biological vectors in Missouri. Horseflies and eye gnats are probably mechanical vectors or hosts that transmit the disease-producing organism but are not required for its life cycle. Horseflies are probably the major mechanical vector in Missouri."--First page.
