OMIA:001789-9913 : Trypanosomiasis, susceptibility/resistance to in Bos taurus (taurine cattle) |
In other species: oxen, cattle , indicine cattle (zebu) , African buffalo
Categories: Immune system phene
Mendelian trait/disorder: no
Mode of inheritance: Multifactorial
Disease-related: yes
Key variant known: no
Cross-species summary: Renamed from 'Trypanotolerance' [19/11/2024], trypanosomiasis refers to a group of diseases cuased by tsetse-transmitted trypanosomes
Species-specific description:
It has long been recognised that N'Dama (Bos taurus) cattle from west Africa are naturally trypanotolerant, in stark contrast to Bos indicus cattle such as the Kenyan Boran (reviewed by Murray et al., 1984). See detailed information in OMIA:001789-9903 : Trypanotolerance in Bos (oxen, cattle).
