factors which affect gudali and wakwa calf weights at birth and weaning on the adamawa plateau, cameroon.birth and weaning data on zebu cattle (gudali and wakwa) of north central cameroon were analysed. calf breed, sire and sex had significant effects (p < 0.01 or 0.001) on birth weight while parity and season of birth were not important. calf breed, sex, season of birth and birth weight had significant effects (p < 0.05 or 0.01 or 0.001) on 8-month weaning weight. sire and parity had no significant effects (p > 0.05) on weaning weight. wakwa calves were heavier at birth (24.30 +/- 0.42 versus 22.6 ...19938236495
impact of natural infestation of amblyomma variegatum on the liveweight gain of male gudali cattle in adamawa (cameroon).the effect of natural tick infestation on the liveweight gain (lwg) of male gudali zebu cattle was studied throughout a year by comparing the performances of two herds, one of which was submitted to weekly acaricidal treatment and the other was left untreated against ticks. six species of ticks were identified on the untreated animals: amblyomma variegatum, boophilus decoloratus, rhipicephalus lunulatus, rhipicephalus turanicus, hyalomma nitidum and hyalomma marginatum rufipes. most of the losse ...19938249253
susceptibility of the namchi and kapsiki cattle of cameroon to trypanosome infection.two indigenous cameroonian taurine cattle breeds (namchi and kapsiki) were evaluated for trypanosusceptibility following inoculation with trypanosoma congolense. the degree of zebu ancestry in the experimental animals was assessed using 6 microsatellite markers which are known to have certain unique alleles which are diagnostic of bos indicus genetic input. their response to the infection was compared to that of known trypanotolerant (n'dama) and trypanosusceptible (ngaoundere gudali) cattle. th ...19979493294
onchocerca ochengi acquisition in zebu gudali cattle exposed to natural transmission: parasite population dynamics and igg antibody subclass responses to ov10/ov11 recombinant antigens.ngaoundere gudali zebu cattle naturally exposed to simulium damnosum s.l. and culicoides spp. bites were examined during 4 years for o. ochengi adult worm acquisition, onchocerca ochengi and onchocerca gutturosa skin microfilaria dynamics, and igg1 and igg2 antibody subclass responses. eleven animals acquired a total of 465 o. ochengi nodules (average of 17 per female and 72 per male). the o. ochengi nodule load was highly variable in individual animals and exacerbated in mature male cattle. thr ...200415158555
serological patterns of brucellosis, leptospirosis and q fever in bos indicus cattle in cameroon.brucellosis, leptospirosis and q fever are important infections of livestock causing a range of clinical conditions including abortions and reduced fertility. in addition, they are all important zoonotic infections infecting those who work with livestock and those who consume livestock related products such as milk, producing non-specific symptoms including fever, that are often misdiagnosed and that can lead to severe chronic disease. this study used banked sera from the adamawa region of camer ...201020098670
