The cartography in the high resolution of quantitative locus of character (QTL) is an important step towards the positional cloning or the positional identification of candidate genes. Recently, the use of descendants at the advanced inter-junction has been described for the dissection and the pr...

Towards identification and cloning of the trypanotolerance genes in mouse
In previous studies, the resistance to infection by Trypanosoma congolense has been localized in a region of chromosome 17 consisting the gene of TNF alpha. On the other hand, it has been Reported that the TNF alpha has a trypanolitic activity. So, we have started to study the expression of TN al...

Genetic resistance to trypanosomiasis and its potential economic benefits in cattle in Eastern Africa
Sustainable livestock improvement cannot be guaranteed for most tropical areas of the world without utilization of the evolutionary adaptation of the indigenous livestock breeds. The paper summarizes the adaptive traits of indigenous tropical breeds, presents a case for their evaluation and discu...

This study is evaluating the resistance of Red Maasai sheep to endoparasite infections relative to Dorper sheep and a range of Red Maasai x Dorper crosses. The results confirm previous Reports that both Red Maasai ewes and lambs are more resistant to endoparasites (predominantly Haemonchus contor...

Genetic resistance to gastrointestinal nematode parasites in Red Maasai sheep in Kenya
Genetic resistance to artificially acquired gastrointestinal parasites was studied in 49 Horro and 103 Menz breeds of Ethiopia. The experimental design involved 2 breeds, 2 infection treatments (Infected vs Non infected) and 3 dietary protein treatments using 152 lambs assigned to the 12 treatmen...
