The susceptibility of strains of mice to infection with Trypanosoma congolense. 1978

F W Jennings, and D D Whitelaw, and P H Holmes, and G M Urquhart

The survival times of a number of strains of mice after infection with a stabilate of Trypanosoma brucei or of T congolense were examined. The mean survival times of all the strains when infected with T brucei TREU 667 ranged from 27 to 63 days. Greater disparity was observed after infection with T congolense GVR1 where the mean survival time ranged from seven (BALB/c) to 74 days (C57 Bl). It is suggested that the C57 Bl mouse might provide a laboratory model for the study of trypanotolerance in cattle.

D008815 Mice, Inbred Strains Genetically identical individuals developed from brother and sister matings which have been carried out for twenty or more generations, or by parent x offspring matings carried out with certain restrictions. All animals within an inbred strain trace back to a common ancestor in the twentieth generation.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.
