Neospora caninum

Neospora caninum is an important coccidian parasite that sometimes causes spontaneous abortion in livestock that are infected with it. In addition, the disease is easily passed from mother to offspring during pregnancy, in transplacental transmission.

The genome sequence of Neospora caninum is determined by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.
