A putative genomic map for resistance ofBos indicuscattle in Cameroon to bovine tuberculosis

Abstract: 2Bovine Tuberculosis (bTB) caused by Mycobacterium bovis is a livestock disease of global 3 economic and public health importance. There are currently no effective vaccines available for 4 livestock and so control relies on animal level surveillance and pasteurisation of dairy products. A 5 new alternative control approach is to exploit the genetic variability of the host; recent studies 6 have demonstrated that breeding Bos taurus cattle for increased resistance to bTB is feasible. 7 The utility of such an… Show more
