Trypanosomosis is an important disease affecting humans as well as animals. It remains a big constraint to livestock productions in tropical areas. The objective of this study was to assess the importance of trypanosomosis among cattle diseases in Burkina Faso, mainly in tsetse-challenged areas, ...


Soudre, A.Ouédraogo-Kone, S.Wurzinger, MariaMuller, S.Hanotte, Olivier H.Ouédraogo, A.G.Sölkner, J.[Trypanosomosis: A priority disease in tsetse-challenged areas of Burkina Faso]Trypanosomosis: A priority disease in tsetse-challenged areas of Burkina Faso

Survival analysis applying proportional hazards models was used to investigate genetic and non-genetic factors affecting ewe longevity and lamb survival of sheep in Ethiopia. Data were obtained from an on-station closed nucleus breeding program of Menz sheep and an on-farm Awassi×Menz sheep cross...


Getachew, T.Gizaw, SolomonWurzinger, MariaHaile, AynalemRischkowsky, Barbara A.Okeyo Mwai, AllySölkner, J.Meszaros, G.[Survival analysis of genetic and non-genetic factors influencing ewe longevity and lamb survival of Ethiopian sheep breeds]Survival analysis of genetic and non-genetic factors influencing ewe longevity and lamb survival of Ethiopian sheep breeds

This study was conducted to (i) determine the prevalence of African Animal Trypanosomosis (AAT) in tsetse challenged areas, (ii) compare conventional with qPCR detection systems and (iii) evaluate the host genetic background and biology as risk factors. AAT prevalence studies are often confronted...


Silbermayr, K.Li, F.Soudre, A.Muller, S.Sölkner, J.[A novel qPCR assay for the detection of African animal trypanosomosis in trypanotolerant and trypanosusceptible cattle breeds]A novel qPCR assay for the detection of African animal trypanosomosis in trypanotolerant and trypanosusceptible cattle breeds

A bio-economic model was adapted to estimate economic values for important traits of two Ethiopian indigenous sheep breeds, the Menz and Horro breeds. To do so, a meat sheep herd for fattening lambs and rearing young replacement sheep was simulated. Traits included in the analysis were: daily gai...


Gebre, K.T.Fuerst-Waltl, B.Wurzinger, MariaPhilipsson, J.Duguma, G.Mirkena, T.Haile, AynalemSölkner, J.[Estimates of economic values for important traits of two indigenous Ethiopian sheep breeds]Estimates of economic values for important traits of two indigenous Ethiopian sheep breeds

Breeding programmes described as community-based (CBBP) typically relate to low-input systems with farmers having a common interest to improve and share their genetic resources. CBBPs are more frequent with keepers of small ruminants, in particular smallholders of local breeds, than with cattle, ...

Based on the results of participatory approaches to define traits in the breeding objectives, four scenarios of ram selection and ram use were compared via deterministic modelling of breeding plans for community-based sheep breeding programmes in four diverse agro-ecological regions of Ethiopia. ...
