Packed cell volume (PCV) and peripheral blood percent parasitemia of erythrocytes (PPE) in calves 1718, 1726, and 1727 following transmission feed by T. orientalis Ikeda-infected H. longicornis adult ticks. PCV and Diff-quick-stained blood smears were evaluated following tick attachment and feeding. a calf 1718, b calf 1726, c calf 1727. For A-C, PCV (left y-axis) and PPE (right y-axis) are depicted as percentages, and each value is derived from analysis of a single blood sample taken on the indicated day post-inoculation. ♦ PCV, ○ PPE
