Veterinary Parasitology (WAAVP-2013) held at Perth, Western Australia. Dr. Bal presented his research work on “Polymerase chain reaction vis-a-vis parasitological techniques for diagnosis of Trypanosoma evansi infection in bovine” as oral poster presentation. Such molecular methods are more helpful in diagnosis for better management of the haemoprotozoa.
