Article (Rev. sci. tech. Off. int. Epiz., 1998, 17 (1), 154-175) on “Trypanotolerance, an option for sustainable livestock production in areas at risk from trypanosomosis.” A major advantage of trypanotolerant livestock, particularly N’Dama cattle, is the resistance or adaptation of this breed to many of the important pathogens which prevail in the sub-humid and humid tropics. |
