Abstract
Baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells were fused with Theileria parva-infecled bovine lymphoid cells, using u.v. light-inactivated Sendai virus. The resultant hamster/bovine heterokaryons were shown to be infected with T. parva. In some cases parasites were detected in cells which apparently contained only BHK nuclei.
