Comparative genome analysis of trypanotolerance QTL
Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2009 Certain breeds of domestic ruminants show remarkable resistance to the effects of African trypanosomosis. Unlike susceptible animals, trypanotolerant animals control parasitemia and do not showsevere anaemia or production loss. Identification of trypanotolerance genes in cattle is hampered by cost and breeding time.

Breeding for trypanotolerance in African cattle [PDF]
, 2001 Trypanosomosis, or sleeping sickness, is one of the most important livestock diseases in Africa. Some West African cattle breeds show a degree of resistance to a trypanosome infection: they are trypanotolerant.

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The conservation of indigenous livestock breeds is critical for maintaining biodiversity, strengthening climate resilience, and supporting sustainable livestock systems in sub‐Saharan Africa. However, evidence on the financial feasibility of conservation‐oriented ranching remains limited.

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 African trypanosomosis is a chronic debilitating disease affecting the health and economic well‐being of developing countries. The immune response during African trypanosome infection consisting of a strong proinflammatory M1‐type activation of the myeloid phagocyte system (MYPS) results in iron deprivation for these extracellular parasites.

Introgression of trypanotolerance genes [PDF]
, 2000 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

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Trypanosomiasis has been endemic in wildlife in Zambia for more than a century. The disease has been associated with neurological disorders in humans. Current conservation strategies by the Zambian government of turning all game reserves into state‐protected National Parks (NPs) and game management areas (GMAs) have led to the expansion of the wildlife

Identifying the Mechanisms of Trypanotolerance in Cattle
, 2005 Some West African cattle breeds such as N’Dama have survived in tsetse-infected areas for thousands of years and are productive under trypanosome challenge, a trait known as trypanotolerance. Elucidation of the mechanisms of trypanotolerance could lead to new options for disease control.

Immunobiology of African Trypanosomes: Need of Alternative Interventions
BioMed Research International, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 Trypanosomiasis is one of the major parasitic diseases for which control is still far from reality. The vaccination approaches by using dominant surface proteins have not been successful, mainly due to antigenic variation of the parasite surface coat.
