Camels are important resource for the desert-dwelling communities. They are a source of income, milk and meat and often play an important sociocultural role in pastoralist societies. In order to help formulate a rational conservation, utilisation and Development policy for the species in Kenya, a...

Dromedaries have been fundamental to the development of human societies in arid landscapes and for long-distance trade across hostile hot terrains for 3,000 y. Today they continue to be an important livestock resource in marginal agro-ecological zones. However, the history of dromedary domesticat...

The number of domestic Bactrian camels has been decreasing rapidly in recent years in Central Asia, whereas very little is known about their genetic diversity and relationship. Most of these animals are found today in China and Mongolia. Here, we used 12 microsatellite DNA markers to characterise...

Dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius) are an important protein source for people in semi-arid and arid regions of Africa. In Kenya, camel populations have grown dramatically in the past few decades resulting in the potential for increased disease transmission between humans and camels. An estima...

The four human coronaviruses (HCoVs) are globally endemic respiratory pathogens. The Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus (CoV) is an emerging CoV with a known zoonotic source in dromedary camels. Little is known about the origins of endemic HCoVs. Studying these viruses’ evolution...

The field studies reported in this thesis on epidemiology and chemotherapy of Trypanosoma evansi in camels were conducted for a period of 18 months on two herds of camels located at Ngurunit and Olturot, in Marsabit District, Northern Kenya. In this area, camels provide subsistence for a nomadic ...
