African trypanosomes infect cattle and humans in tsetse fly-infested areas of sub-Saharan Africa, causing sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in livestock. To date, no vaccines are available to combat these economically important diseases. In order to develop safe and protective vaccines, the ...

This collection of papers (submitted as a doctoral thesis) considers the various aspects of cellular differentiation and genetics of the trypanosome life cycle. The first chapters gives a general introduction to African trypanosomiasis. The next 4 discuss the DNA content of the genus Trypanosoma,...

The history of theileriosis in Zimbabwe is presented covering the period from the introduction of East Coast Fever in 1901 to the mid-1980s. This is followed by a series of 8 papers on the following topics: occurrence, isolation and characterization, epidemiology, age resistance, transmission by ...
