Heartwater, caused by the rickettsial organism Cowdria ruminantium and transmitted by ticks of the genus Amblyomma, is considered to be the most important tick-borne disease of cattle in southern Africa, and is second only in importance to East Coast fever (theileriosis) in eastern Africa. This p...
The mechanisms by which the rabies virus persists in a host population are unclear. Mathematical models of rabies have difficulty in explaining how the rabies virus persists in the host population between epidemics. Simple deterministic models of rabies predict an unrealistically low number of in...
Heartwater, an infectious disease of ruminants caused by the rickettsia Cowdria ruminantium (transmitted by ixodid ticks of the genus Amblyomma and vertically), severely constrains livestock production throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Its epidemiology varies from epidemics with high mortality (on i...
Tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis affects cattle production over approximately 10 million km2 of Africa. In these areas, trypanocidal drugs, both prophylactic and curative, are the most widely used methods of trypanosomosis control. However, resistance of trypanosomes to the 3 trypanocidal drugs ...
Heartwater is a disease of high mortality in domestic ruminants (cattle, sheep and goats) in sub-Saharan Africa and in the Caribbean. An intracellular rickettsia, Cowdria ruminantium, is the cause of the disease and is transmitted by ticks of the genus Amblyomma. Losses due to heartwater are high...
Several species of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) were found to occur in the cassava clone Secundina, which was thought to be virus- free. A large dsRNA molecule (6.6 x 106 Mr = relative molecular mass)(L-dsRNA) was shown to be graft, but not mechanically transmitted and occurred primarily in a nucl...
