Trypanosomosis: potential driver of selection in African cattle [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2015
Trypanosomosis is a serious cause of reduction in productivity of cattle in tsetse-fly infested areas. Baoule and other local Taurine cattle breeds in Burkina Faso are trypanotolerant. Zebuine cattle, which are also kept there are susceptible to trypanosomosis but bigger in body size. Farmers have continuously been intercrossing Baoule and Zebu animals

Geospatial forecast model for tsetse-transmitted animal trypanosomosis in Ethiopia

open access: yes, 2005
The aims of this study were to develop a geographic information systems (GIS) forecast and risk assessment model for cyclically transmitted trypanosomosis in Ethiopia by matching features in the environment to available information on the preferences and

Tsetse Fly Detection and Sex Classification Model Enrichment Employing YOLOv8 and YOLO11 Architecture

open access: yesApplied AI Letters, Volume 6, Issue 3, October 2025.
This study developed an automated Tsetse fly sex identification and classification system using CNN‐driven mobile imaging and compared the performance of YOLOv8 and YOLO11 through a performance matrix and statistical analysis involving paired t‐tests and McNemar's test.

Impact of long‐term mass‐rearing on the genetic structure of tsetse fly Glossina palpalis gambiensis colonies

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1575-1587, October 2025.
Abstract Tsetse flies are the sole cyclic vectors of African trypanosomes, which cause human and animal African trypanosomiases in Africa. Tsetse fly control remains a promising option for disease management. The sterile insect technique (SIT) stands as an environmentally friendly tool to control tsetse populations.

Immune response in cattle trypanosomosis and trypanotolerance: Main findings and gaps [PDF]

open access: yes
Trypanosome parasites of the genus Trypanosoma cause African animal trypanosomosis, a devastating livestock disease plagu- ing sub-Saharan Africa. Unlike many protozoan parasites, these extracellular blood-borne pathogens directly engage the host's ...

A Spatio-temporal model of African animal trypanosomosis risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background African animal trypanosomosis (AAT) is a major constraint to sustainable development of cattle farming in sub-Saharan Africa. The habitat of the tsetse fly vector is increasingly fragmented owing to demographic pressure and shifts in climate ...

Seasonal prevalence of trypanosomosis, Glossina density and infection along the escarpment of Omo River, Loma district, southern Ethiopia

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Background: The temporal information of trypanosomosis and tsetse apparent density is very limited in the southern part of the country. So, the study was conducted to estimate the temporal, dry and wet seasons, prevalence of cattle trypanosomosis, and ...

Evaluation of two candidate molecules—TCTP and cecropin—on the establishment of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense into the gut of Glossina palpalis gambiensis

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1747-1760, October 2025.
This study investigates the potential of enhancing the resistance of Glossina palpalis gambiensis to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense to mitigate the transmission of Human African Trypanosomiasis. We successfully cloned genes encoding proteins of interest in Sodalis strains, resulting in recombinant Sodalis (recSodalis) that were micro‐injected into the L3

Canine trypanosomosis: a case report

open access: yesJournal of the Hellenic Veterinary Medical Society, 2021
Trypanosomosis is a haemoprotozoan infection affecting a broad range of wild and domestic animals including dogs. Infected dogs may die within 2-4 weeks in the acute and fatal form of the disease. A dog was presented with the complaint of anorexia, persistent recumbency and loss of body weight which lasted for few days.

A Review of Trypanosomosis-Induced Reproductive Dysfunctions in Male Animals

open access: yes, 2014
Trypanosomosis has been recognized as one of the major limitations to livestock production in the African continent. In addition to its clinical manifestations such as weight loss, lethargy, weakness and dullness, reproductive organs are also affected ...
