Exploring the assumptions underlying genetic variation in host nematode resistance (Open Access publication).

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

The wide range of genetic parameter estimates for production traits and nematode resistance in sheep obtained from field studies gives rise to much speculation. Using a mathematical model describing host - parasite interactions in a genetically heterogeneous lamb population, we investigated the consequence of: (i) genetic relationships between underlying growth and immunological traits on estimated genetic...
