Efficient Gene Knockout and Knockdown Systems in Neospora caninum Enable Rapid Discovery and Functional Assessment of Novel Proteins

ABSTRACT The development of molecular genetics has greatly enhanced the study of the biology and pathology associated with parasites of the phylum Apicomplexa. While the molecular tools are highly developed for the apicomplexan Toxoplasma gondii, the closely related parasite Neospora caninum lacks e...
