Abstract

The response of the Nigerian indigenous chicken to Trypanosoma brucei 8/18 and T. vivax Y58 was investigated. The local chicken used in this study was susceptible to T. brucei infection but refractory to T. vivax (Y58) (a rodent-adapted strain). The T. brucei infection was non-clinical in nature.
