After many years of intensive study, concepts concerning epizootic bovine abortion (EBA) are undergoing fundamental changes. The demonstration that the Ornithodoros coriaceus tick is a natural vector of the infection led to the isolation of a virus which, although not an abortifacient agent per se,...
The development of the fetal lesions of epizootic bovine abortion (EBA) was studied in a series of experiments and field cases of the disease. Thirty-six experimentally infected fetuses were recovered at periods of 29 to 126 days after their dams had been infected by allowing the vector tick ...
Advances in defining the biology of epizootic bovine abortion (EBA), including identification of the etiologic agent, have been hampered by the inability to reproduce the disease with confidence. Experimental reproduction of EBA, by feeding the tick vector Ornithodoros coriaceus on susceptible pregnant...
tick‐borne diseaseThe soft tick, Ornithodoros coriaceus (Koch) (Acari: Argasidae), is a common mammalian parasite of livestock in many arid regions of the western U.S.A. The tick is a known vector of the undescribed bacterial pathogen that causes epizootic bovine abortion (EBA), which ...
Epizootic bovine abortion (EBA), a tick-transmitted disease of pregnant cattle grazing foothill pastures, is a major cause of reproductive failure in California and adjacent states. Affected fetuses develop a chronic disease, resulting in late-term abortion or premature calving. Despite investigations ...
In the 43 years since the first description in California, epizootic bovine abortion (EBA) has been considered but not definitively diagnosed as a cause of late-term abortions on Nevada ranches. Examination of aborted full-term bovine fetuses obtained from Nevada ranches revealed gross abnormalities...

Epizootic bovine abortion (EBA) is a tick transmitted abortive disease of beef cattle in the western United States. Infected cattle show no apparent clinical signs of disease until abortion occurs, usually within the last trimester of gestation. Recent research supports the role of a unique ...
