Human chromosome (Chr) 18(HSA 18) contains approximately 85 million base pains of DNA. Thirty genes and pseudogenes have been mapped to HSA 18 by somatic cell genetics or in situ hybridization. Two bovine genes - Yamaguchi sacroma viral oncogene homology 1 (YESI) and desmocollin type 1 (DSC1) - h...

A preliminary search for QTLs in a cattle F2 resource populations segregating for trypanotolerance has revealed three large candidate chromosomal regions (Bta02, Bta05, Bta07). In order to narrow down the position of the trypanotolerant QTLs, we are building comparative chromosomal maps between c...

We have sought to test the possibility of detecting regions of the genome under selection through effects on variation at linked neutral genetic markers. Particularly, we investigated three genomic regions identified by mapping in a cross-bred pedigree as harbouring QTL for trypanosomiasis tolera...

West African N'Dama cattle have developed a genetic capacity to survive, reproduce and remain productive under trypanosomosis risk. The cellular and molecular bases of this so-called trypanotolerance are not known, but the trait is manifested by the N'Dama's greater capacity to control parasitae...

Natural resistance to African trypanosomiasis in certain Bos taurus cattle in West Africa, called trypanotolerance, may hold solutions for control of this economically crippling disease. Comparison of immune responses between trypanotolerant and trypanosusceptible cattle have shown some differen...

Two bovine bacterial artificial chromosome clones were screened by PCR to amplify the tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFA) gene. DNA extraction and Southern blotting and probing with a (GT)10 oligonucleotide were performed, followed by cloning into the pUC19 vector. A 0.9 kb fragment containing se...
