Abstract

Anaplasmosis is an infectious, noncontagious, transmissible disease of cattle caused by the intra-erythrocyte parasite Anaplasma marginale. In the United States, anaplasmosis is enzootic in the southern Atlantic states, the Gulf Coast states, the lower plains and western states but is reported as sporadic in the northern states.
