Morphological comparisons of the bovine piroplasm, Babesia divergens, in cattle and jird (Meriones unguiculatus) erythrocytes.

In comparative studies of Babesia divergens in jirds and splenectomized calves several differences in the appearance of the parasite were found. Pyriform pairs of the parasite grew larger in jirds than in calves and also were larger than those of the original isolate when calves were infected after multiple jird passage. The parasites usually occupied a central intraerythrocytic position in jirds whereas in cattle they mainly occurred peripherally. The majority of pairs formed an obtuse angle relative to each other in both host species. The main difference in morphological types was found to be the rarity of single pyriforms in jirds and this, together with other small differences, was attributed to a faster replication rate of B. divergens in this host. Intraerythrocytic death of B. divergens was observed in both jirds and calves indicating similar defence mechanisms against primary infections in the 2 host species.
