A study was conducted to assess the correlation between criteria of trypanotolerance and production. N'dama post weaner cattle with different weights and from different age groups were studied for weight gain, packed cell volume (PCV) and for the presence of trypanosomes. The analysis approach wa...

Health and performance of trypanotolerant cattle breeds exposed to quantified trypanosomiasis risk at five sites within the African Trypanotolerant Livestock Network
The health and performance records of cattle and sheep used were collected over a three-year period, 1984-1986, at four network sites. Three of the sites, Avetonou (Togo), Boundiali (Cote d’Ivoire) and Mushie (Zaire) were chosen because of their high mean trypanosome of the live weight performanc...

Factors influencing liveweight in a range of network situations
In Mushie ranch, 157 N`Dama progeny of four sires, 95 males and 62 females, were used to estimate the habitability levels for aspects of parasitaemia, anemia control, immune response and animal performance. The males were exposed to a high natural trypanosome challenge, and body weight, trypanoso...
The effects of trypanosome infection and of other factors on parturition interval were evaluated using records for parturitions, which occurred between January 1984 and December 1986 at the Network sites of Avetonu, Boundiali and Mushie. For Mushie some intervals, calculated using parturitions oc...
