In this study, we investigated the prevalence of trypanosome infection in cattle, and molecularly identified the species of trypanosomes in infected cattle and the spatial distribution of trypanosome-infected herds along the Jebba axis of the River Niger.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A randomized cross-sectional study was conducted along the Jebba axis of the River Niger by screening cattle from 36 herd clusters by nested PCR using ITS-1 generic primers.

Twelve animals (3.0%) were positive by PCR. Our results showed a decline in the packed cell volume of infected animals (24.7%). The infection rates were categorized as single infection in 11\/12 (91.7%) and mixed infection in 1\/12 (8.3%). Animals were most frequently infected by\n                      <jats:italic>Trypanosoma congolense<\/jats:italic>\n                      (50.0%), with\n                      <jats:italic>T. congolense<\/jats:italic>\n                      Savannah being the most prevalent subspecies (71.4%). Aside from the infection rate by age (10.0%) and relative distance of animals from the River Niger (56.2%), statistical differences in every other parameter tested were based on mere probabilistic chance. Spatial data showed that the disease was prevalent among herds located less than 3\u00a0km from the River Niger.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Six species of trypanosomes were identified in cattle herds along the Jebba axis of the River Niger, with\n                      <jats:italic>T. congolense<\/jats:italic>\n                      being the most prevalent.
