Abstract excerpt

AIM: To determine flystrike incidence, and estimate genetic parameters and potential indicator traits to reduce breech strike susceptibility in Romney sheep in New Zealand. METHODS: Seventeen Romney-based flocks, on 11 farms from throughout New Zealand, were enrolled in a case-control study in 2009/10 and 2010/11. Farmers observed lambs with flystrike and recorded dag score, breech bareness score and flystrike...
