Host ability to control the Development of trypanosomes is a major component of trypanotolerance. However, practical indicators of the parasite control capability have still to be identified as they rely on the availability of more precise diagnostic techniques that could be carried out at the fa...

Earlier research had provided clear indications of an ability of N'Dama cattle to acquire, over time, some control of the Development of parasitaemia following a T. vivax infection but not apparently, following a T. congolense infection. The objective of this study is to further assess the import...
