Abstract]Towards fine mapping trypanosomiasis resistance QTL Tir 2 and 3 using F12 Tir1 depleted advanced intercross line population. Abstract

The genetic diversity within indigenous livestock breeds of countries like Ethiopia results from the diverse ways in which these resources have been used to support human livelihoods and their ability to cop with the specific environments in which they have been kept. The genes and gene combinati...

Trypanotolerance, the ability of some livestock species and breeds to survive, reproduce and remain productive under trypanosomosis risk without the aid of trypanocidal drugs, was recognised and exploited by farmers long before research on trypanotolerance began. The exploitation of trypanotolera...
