T. congolense associated with homidium and diminazene resistance exist in Lambwe. The impact can be their spread and AAT increase. Polymorphisms are present in Lambwe strains. TcoAde2 is unlikely involved in drug sensitivity. Molecular combined with mice tests is reliable drug sensitivity test and can be applied to other genes. Decline in PCV in infected-treated host could suggest drug resistance.
