Njiru Z, Constantine C
Parasitol Res . 2007 Jun; 101(5):1215-24. PMID: 17587054
To investigate the population genetic structure of Trypanosoma evansi from domesticated animals, we have analysed 112 stocks from camels, buffaloes, cattle and horses using the tandemly repeated coding sequence (MORF2)...

Njiru Z, Constantine C, Gitonga P, Thompson R, Reid S
Vet Parasitol . 2007 Apr; 147(1-2):51-60. PMID: 17452081
Studies on genetic variability in Trypanosoma evansi have been limited by a lack of high-resolution techniques. In this study, we have investigated the use of inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) and...

Thompson R, Boxell A, Ralston B, Constantine C, Hobbs R, Shury T, et al.
Parasitology . 2005 Dec; 132(Pt 3):439-47. PMID: 16316488
Many issues concerning the taxonomy of Echinococcus have been resolved in recent years with the application of molecular tools. However, the status of Echinococcus maintained in transmission cycles involving cervid...

Njiru Z, Constantine C, Masiga D, Reid S, Thompson R, Gibson W
Infect Genet Evol . 2005 Sep; 6(4):292-300. PMID: 16157514
A distinctive feature of Trypanosoma evansi is the possession of a kinetoplast that contains homogeneous DNA minicircles, but lacks DNA maxicircles. Two major sequence variants of the minicircle have been...

Njiru Z, Constantine C, Guya S, Crowther J, Kiragu J, Thompson R, et al.
Parasitol Res . 2004 Dec; 95(3):186-92. PMID: 15619129
There are 11 different pathogenic trypanosomes in trypanosomiasis endemic regions of Africa. Their detection and characterisation by molecular methods relies on species-specific primers; consequently several PCR tests have to be...

Vet Parasitol . 2004 Sep; 124(3-4):187-99. PMID: 15381299
Camel trypanosomosis (Surra) causes high morbidity and is an impediment to the camel husbandry in Kenya. The lack of a sensitive diagnostic test has hindered the collection of accurate epidemiological...

Parasitology . 2000 Feb; 117 Suppl:S161-75. PMID: 10660938
In this chapter, the contribution of molecular tools in understanding the aetiology and ecology of infectious diseases is examined in the context of molecular epidemiology (ME). ME is seen as...
