Trypanosomiasis, a disease transmitted by the tsetse fly, is a major constraint to livestock production and mixed farming in Africa. This study examines the economics of the village production of trypanotolerant cattle recently introduced in an affected area of Togo that was previously virtually ...

This workshop was conceived in recognition of the fact that, over the years, a great deal of research has been conducted on trypanotolerance. With the advent of new and powerful means to identify markers and genes controlling traits of interest, and with the developments in animal breeding bringi...

Describes the background to the problem of trypanosomiasis in Africa, identifying Bos taurus & Bos indicus types of trypanotolerant breeds & discussing the importance of their use in the exploitation of tsetse-infested areas of Africa. Examines the establishment of a network of trypanotolerant li...

Emphasises the importance of trypanotolerance by indicating that trypanotolerant breeds were at least as productive as other indigenous African breeds in areas of zero to low tsetse challenge and that in areas where tsetse challenge was substantial, only trypanotolerant breeds could survive. It w...

Under most circumstances, certain breeds of domestic ruminants show a remarkable resistance to the effects of African trypanosomiasis: they can tolerate the presence of parasites while apparently controlling levels of parasitaemia and, crucially, not showing the the severe anaemia and production ...
