Trypanosomosis is one of the major constraints on animal production in areas of Africa which have the greatest potential for significant increases in domestic livestock populations and livestock productivity. While the eradication of trypanosomosis from the entire continent is an unrealistic goal...


D'Ieteren, G.D.M.Authié, E.Wissocq, N.M.Murray, M.[Trypanotolerance, an option for sustainable livestock production in areas at risk from trypanosomiasis]Trypanotolerance, an option for sustainable livestock production in areas at risk from trypanosomiasis

This paper reviews studies on the relationships between trypanotolerance and performance of cattle, and the genetics of trypanotolerance traits. Results of these studies are used to discuss the practical possibilities of increasing trypanotolerance through selection.


Trail, J.C.M.D'Ieteren, G.D.M.Murray, M.[Practical aspects of developing genetic resistance to trypanosomiasis]Practical aspects of developing genetic resistance to trypanosomiasis

While an increasing number of examples of innate resistance to disease are being identified in domestic livestock, resistance to the effect of trypanosomes is one of the best-recognized and most thoroughly investigated. Experimental and field studies reviewed in this chapter are providing the bas...

Whitelaw, D.D.Murray, M.[Experimental evaluation of genetic resistance to African trypanosomiasis in sheep and goats in Kenya]Experimental evaluation of genetic resistance to African trypanosomiasis in sheep and goats in Kenya

This study has indicated that differences in susceptiblity to Trypanosoma congolense infection exist among the 3 main breeds of goats in Uganda namely, Kigezi, Mubende and small East African (SEA). The Kigezi goats appeared to be the most susceptibe suffering more severe anaemia, greater retardat...
