Genetic Diversity of African Trypanosomes in Tsetse Flies and Cattle From the Kafue Ecosystem

Genetic Diversity of African Trypanosomes in Tsetse Flies and Cattle From the Kafue Ecosystem

We clarified the genetic diversity of Trypanosoma spp. within the Kafue ecosystem, using PCR targeting the internal transcribed spacer 1 and the cathepsin L-like cysteine protease (CatL) sequences. The overall prevalence of Trypanosoma spp. in cattle and tsetse flies was 12.65 and 26.85%, respective...
