Genomic approaches to understanding host resistance and parasite virulence in Trypanosoma parasites

2011-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Roughly one-third of cattle in sub-Saharan Africa are at risk of contracting ~Nagana~ - a disease caused by Trypanosoma parasites similar to those that cause human ~Sleeping Sickness~. Laboratory mice can also be infected by trypanosomes, and different mouse breeds show varying levels of susceptibility to infection, similar to what is seen between breeds of cattle. We have applied next-generation technologies to i...
