Signatures of selection in sheep bred for resistance or susceptibility to gastrointestinal nematodes.

BMC genomics - 30 Jul 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal nematodes are one of the most serious causes of disease in domestic ruminants worldwide. There is considerable variation in resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes within and between sheep breeds, which appears to be due to underlying genetic diversity. Through selection of resistant animals, rapid genetic progress has been demonstrated in both research and commercial flocks. Recent...
