Measurement of trypanotolerance criteria and their effect on reproductive performance of N'Dama cattle

open access: yesVeterinary Parasitology, 1993
One thousand and twenty-eight cow-year records were available from 260 N'Dama cows each having at least 2 years of monthly matching health and performance data over a 5-year period under a medium natural tsetse challenge in Gabon. Four hundred and fifty-eight calf/dam pairs were also available where the calf had been reared to weaning, both had monthly

Ly6C- Monocytes Regulate Parasite-Induced Liver Inflammation by Inducing the Differentiation of Pathogenic Ly6C+ Monocytes into Macrophages.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
Monocytes consist of two well-defined subsets, the Ly6C+ and Ly6C- monocytes. Both CD11b+ myeloid cells populations have been proposed to infiltrate tissues during inflammation.

Transcriptional profiling of cattle infected with Trypanosoma congolense highlights gene expression signatures underlying trypanotolerance and trypanosusceptibility

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Background African animal trypanosomiasis (AAT) caused by tsetse fly-transmitted protozoa of the genus Trypanosoma is a major constraint on livestock and agricultural production in Africa and is among the top ten global cattle diseases impacting on the ...

Markers for mapping trypanotolerance genes

open access: yes, 2010
Several West African Bos taurus cattle breeds show a remarkable ability to survive and be productive in the face of a trypanosome challenge which would quickly kill susceptible cattle.

Mesures barymétriques chez le bétail Borgou dans le Nord-Est Bénin

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1991
Des mesures barymétriques ont été faites sur 115 animaux de la race trypanotolérante Borgou, dans la province du Borgou au Bénin. L'équation de régression du poids Y sur le périmètre thoracique X : In Y = -8,081 + 2,712 In X, avec un coefficient de ...

Immunosuppression in trypanotolerant N'Dama cattle following Trypanosoma congolense infection

open access: yesParasite Immunology, 1993
SummaryTsetse‐transmitted Trypanosoma congolense infection causes an impairment of in vitro T cell proliferative responses in Boran (Bos indicus) cattle. To assess the importance of this phenomenon as it may relate to the ability of trypanotolerant cattle to control infection with trypanosomes, T cell proliferative responses to mitogenic stimulus with ...

Enquete sur l'infection trypanosomienne dans les troupeaux bovins villageois du Nord de la Cote d'Ivoire

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1983
Une enquête hématologique ponctuelle portant sur 3 040 animaux de race N'Dama, Baoulé, Zébu et Métis (zébus x taurins) choisis dans 194 troupeaux villageois sédentaires répartis dans le Nord de la Côte-d'Ivoire a conduit à l'étude des degrés d'infection ...

Genetic aspects of control of anaemia development in trypanotolerant N'Dama cattle

open access: yesActa Tropica, 1991
148 one-year-old N'Dama cattle, progeny of 29 sires, were exposed for 92 days to a medium natural tsetse-trypanosome challenge in Gabon, Central Africa. Matching health and performance data were recorded on 11 occasions. Average packed red cell volume percent (PCV) and lowest PCV reached during the period were evaluated as measures of ability to ...

Introgression of trypanotolerance genes

open access: yes
Trypanosomosis is the most widespread parasitic disease of great importance in Africa affecting human and animals. There are breeds of cattle that are trypanotolerant. Trypanotolerance is an ability of these breeds to withstand the effects of trypanosome infections. The disease impedes production in Sub-Saharan Africa. In this thesis, the main focus is
