Anaplasma marginale propagated in vitro showed an increasing rate of replication in a sequence of three experiments. The changes in the percentage of parasitized erythrocytes and identification of the organism in culture were monitored by the Giemsa-staining and the direct fluorescent antibody techniques. The ultrastructure of the organism in culture also was determined. The percentage of parasitized erythrocytes increased more than three times in the first experiment during a period of 8 days, and about ten times in the second experiment during a period of 14 days. After 8 days of observation of the primary culture in the third experiment, the trend of growth was more rapid than in the first and second experiment. The viability of the organism was verified by inoculation of susceptible calves, using 13- and 33-day cultures of the first and the second experiments, respectively. The primary cultures were subcultured twice by dilution with normal bovine erythrocytes.
