Abstract excerpt
This experiment was designed to determine the effects of under-dosing on the frequency of benzimidazole resistant allele in the nematode Teladorsagia circumcincta. Fenbendazole (FBZ) was tested at 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4 of the recommended dose for sheep (5 mg/kg body weight). The fraction of the susceptible homozygote (SS), susceptible heterozygote (RS) and resistant homozygote (RR) genotypes were compared among...
