Fig. 1From: Pathogenic genotype of major piroplasm surface protein associated with anemia in Theileria orientalis infection in cattleDevelopment of anemia according to major piroplasm surface protein (MPSP) genotypes in Theileria-infected cattle. Comparison of red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), and hematocrit (HCT) values among MPSP types (a) and the presence of anemia in each MPSP type (b). Colored bars indicated the level of anemia. Blue no anemia; orange mild anemia and red severe anemia. Number of animals: MPSP-negative (n = 34); types 1 (n = 20), 2 (n = 32), 3 (n = 2) and 7 (n = 2). *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.001Back to article page
