Ticks and tickborne diseases (TTBD) are serious animal health constraints in Uganda and acaricides are the current method of choice for their control. Although widely used, the external-input, single-technology paradigm of chemical control is unsustainable and may inhibit endemic stability. TTB...

Economic impact assessment of heartwater in Southern Africa
Heartwater is a tick-borne disease of cattle, sheep and goats and some wild ruminants prevalent in much of Africa and the Caribbean. It is caused by the rickettsial organism Cowdria ruminantium and transmitted by ticks of the genus Amblyomma. The disease has traditionally been controlled by the u...

A study was conducted to assess the correlation between criteria of trypanotolerance and production. N'dama post weaner cattle with different weights and from different age groups were studied for weight gain, packed cell volume (PCV) and for the presence of trypanosomes. The analysis approach wa...
