摘要
In South America, Colombia is the third-largest livestock producer with approximately 28.8 million cattle, of which Colombian Creole cattle represent around 1% of the livestock population. Animal Trypanosomiasis (AT) is one of the most critical problems in the livestock industry, reducing its production by about 30 %. Considering the paucity of information to understand the epidemiological features of AT in Colombian Creole cattle, the present study reports the molecular prevalence and clinical traits associated with the infection of Trypanosoma spp. in three Colombian Creole breeds. From 2019 to 2020, cross-sectional surveillance in farms of central and west of Colombia was designed to evaluate the mentioned characteristics in Casanare no, Chino Santandereano, and Sanmartinero Creole breeds. Molecular analysis showed an AT prevalence of 60.2 % (95 % CI = 54.2 % - 66.2 %). The Chino Santandereano population presented the highest value (Trypanosoma spp., 75.2 %, T. theileri 59.6 % and T. evansi 15.6 %), followed by Casanare no (Trypanosoma spp., 65.3 %, T. theileri 38.6 %, T. evansi 24.0 %, and T. vivax 5.3 %) and Sanmartinero (Trypanosoma spp., 33.3 %, T. theileri 24.0 % and T. evansi 9.3 %). Features such as breeds, age, and feeding system were significantly associated with AT prevalence (P < 0.05). Additionally, a low level of serum total proteins was observed during T. evansi infection in Sanmartinero (P < 0.05). To our knowledge, this is the first cross-sectional survey that evaluates using molecular methods the infection of Trypanosoma spp. in Colombian Creole breeds, showing significant variations in the prevalence and clinical signs associated with the infection. These results suggest different degrees of trypanotolerance in these breeds, as well as a possible effect of environmental variables on the prevalence and clinical characteristics associated with the infection. The epidemiological and economic implications of these findings are discussed here.
