Matching information on animal health and performance aspects was collected from 255 N'dama post-weaners from September 1986 to December 1991. Records covered for each animal a two years period from weaning at 10 months of age until 34 months of age. Curative trypanocidal drug treatment was given...

Quantification of the relative importance of trypanotolerance measurements on productivity of N'Dama cattle (Addendum)
Presents results of a study undertaken firstly to measure the relative effects in N'Dama cattle of length of time detected parasitaemic; intensity of parasitaemia; and control of development of anaemia; on reproductive performance (calving interval), maternal ability (calf weaning weight) and cow...

Effect of trypanosome infection, control of parasitaemia and control of anaemia development on productivity of N'Dama cattle
Trypanosome infection was detected by the dark ground/phase contrast buffy coat microscopic technique in N'Dama cattle in a high natural tsetse challenge situation in Zaire. The data were used to compare the pattern of infection in very young animals and in their dams, and to evaluate how the pat...

Matching animal health and performance data were recorded over the 2 year period from weaning at 10 months of age on 225 N'Dama cattle in a high natural tsetse challenge situation in Zaire. Four parameters that are regarded as possible indicators of trypanotolerance, species of trypanosomes detec...
