Two parasitic weeds, Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke and Alectra vogelii Benth., cause heavy yield losses in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) throughout the semiarid regions of sub-Saharan Africa. Several sources of resistance have been identified, including B 301, a landrace from Botswan...

Piroplasms frequently infect domestic and wild carnivores. At present, there is limited information on the occurrence and molecular identity of these tick-borne parasites in wild felids in Kenya. In 2009, a pair of captive lions (Panthare leo) was diagnosed with suspected babesiosis and mineral d...

Random clones from a cDNA library made from mRNA purified from dissected salivary glands of feeding female Amblyomma variegatum ticks were subjected to single pass sequence analysis. A total of 3,992 sequences with an average read length of 580 nucleotides have been used to construct a gene index...

Recently, mortalities among giraffes, attributed to infection with unique species of piroplasms were reported in South Africa. Although haemoparasites are known to occur in giraffes of Kenya, the prevalence, genetic diversity and pathogenicity of these parasites has not been investigated. In thi...

Prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites was investigated using monthly faecal samples and necropsy data in sheep treated regularly and irregularly at ILCA, Debre Berhan station. Maximum infection rates with nematodes, fasciola and coccidia in the irregularly treated sheep were 18 percent, 10 per...

We begin by stressing that relevant and adequate information is an essential ingredient of efficient decision-making processes aimed at optimising the performance of livestock enterprises. Such decisions are universally made, so that though different approaches may be required, animal health and ...
