Butana and Kenana calves' performance were evaluated. Effects of type of breed, sex of calf, age of dam, sequence of calving and season of calving on calf birth weights were examined based on records of 256 Butana and 169 Kenana calves. Data from statistical analysis of variances and correlation ...

A live, attenuated vaccine is currently the only viable option to control of CBPP in Africa. It has been suggested that simple modifications to current vaccines and protocols might improve efficacy in the field. In this report we compared the current vaccine formulation with a buffered preparatio...

Discusses factors influencing liveweight in a range of trypanotolerance network situations. Analyses liveweight traits, viz, dam liveweights at parturition and weaning, dam liveweight change between parturition and weaning, progeny liveweights at birth and weaning and progeny pre-weaning daily gain.
