Theileria parva, an intra-cellular protozoan parasite of cattle, causes a
lymphoproliferative disease called East Coast fever. The parasite genome is
considered to be haploid in both the sporozoite and piroplasm stages of its life cycle
while the schizont stages are polyploid. The piroplasm has f...

In order to characterise the D17MIT16 BAC DNA clone which is part of a 1200 kilobase DNA insert believed to contain mouse trypanotolerance genes, restriction endonucleases were used to digest the insert for restriction mapping, identification of DNA markers, sub cloning and sequencing. The D17MIT...

Knowledge of the genetic diversity is a prerequisite for better utilization of any genetic resource. However, such information is lacking for the indigenous African chicken. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) displacement (D)-loop sequences were used to study the genetic diversity, genetic differentiation...

The efficacy of the few available trypanocides is being seriously compromised by the emergence and spread of drug resistant trypanosome strains. Elucidation of the molecular genetic basis of this phenotype may contribute to an understanding of the mechanisms of development of resistance to the tr...
