In vitro differentiation between Trypanosoma brucei brucei and T.b. evansi.
Transformation experiments of bloodstream form trypanosomes into procyclics are described to differentiate the pleomorphic Trypanosoma brucei brucei and the monomorphic T.b. evansi. Stocks previously identified as T.b. brucei transformed into procyclics in vitro, whereas T.b. evansi did not.
