Integrative Genomics Identifies Candidate Genes Underlying Trypanotolerance in Hybrid African Cattle [PDF]

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Integrative genomics combines data from different omics sources to link genotypes and phenotypes with the aim of unravelling biological networks and pathways that undergird complex traits, particularly with respect to disease. In this respect, integrative genomics, leveraging population and functional genomic data, can be employed to ...

Impact of nutrition on the pathophysiology of bovine trypanosomiasis

Parasitology, 2000
Trypanosomiasis is a major veterinary problem over much of sub-Saharan Africa and is frequently associated with undernutrition. There is growing evidence that nutrition can have a profound effect on the pathophysiological features of animal trypanosomiasis.

Occurrence and Public Health Implications of Brucella Abortus and Antimicrobial Residues in Raw Cow Milk in Bukombe District, Tanzania [PDF]

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Poor husbandry practices in Bukombe District accelerate diseases in livestock and indiscriminate uses of antimicrobials. Cow abortions, raw cow placenta and aborted fetuses feeding dogs, communal grazing and watering and introduction of new animals predict brucellosis in the herd.

Understanding bovine trypanosomiasis and trypanotolerance: the promise of functional genomics

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2005
African bovine trypanosomiasis, caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma congolense, is endemic throughout sub-Saharan Africa and is a major constraint on livestock production. A promising approach to disease control is to understand and exploit naturally evolved trypanotolerance.
