Haematology of N’Dama and West African Shorthorn cattle herds under natural Trypanosoma vivax challenge in Ghana [version 2; referees: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations] [PDF]
Background: Animal trypanosomosis is a major cause of economic loss in livestock production in Africa. A suggested control measure is to use breeds with traits of trypanotolerance.

Genetic Diversity of African Trypanosomes in Tsetse Flies and Cattle From the Kafue Ecosystem
We clarified the genetic diversity of Trypanosoma spp. within the Kafue ecosystem, using PCR targeting the internal transcribed spacer 1 and the cathepsin L-like cysteine protease (CatL) sequences. The overall prevalence of Trypanosoma spp. in cattle and

Detection of anti-Trypanosoma spp. antibodies in cattle from southern Brazil
Bovine trypanosomosis, caused by Trypanosoma vivax, is a disease that originated in Africa and currently affects cattle in several South American countries, including almost all Brazilian states. Despite the reports on T.

Antigenic diversity is generated by distinct evolutionary mechanisms in African trypanosome species [PDF]
Antigenic variation enables pathogens to avoid the host immune response by continual switching of surface proteins. The protozoan blood parasite Trypanosoma brucei causes human African trypanosomiasis ("sleeping sickness") across sub-Saharan Africa and ...

Trypanosoma (Duttonefla) vivax
Although Trypanosoma vivax was first discovered in 1905 (Ref. 1), the fact that most stocks of this parasite are restricted to ruminant hosts has retarded investigation of this species compared with the experimentally more amenable T. brucei and T. congolense. The veterinary importance of T. vivax (Box 1) and a recent report suggesting that T.

Trypanosome diversity in wildlife species from the Serengeti and Luangwa Valley ecosystems [PDF]
<p>Background: The importance of wildlife as reservoirs of African trypanosomes pathogenic to man and livestock is well recognised. While new species of trypanosomes and their variants have been identified in tsetse populations, our knowledge of ...

Unveiling Trypanosoma spp. diversity in cattle from the state of Rio de Janeiro: A genetic perspective [PDF]
: Cattle trypanosomiasis imposes significant economic burdens on the global livestock industry. The causative agents of this disease belong to the protozoan Trypanosoma genus.
