Abstract excerpt
AIM: To explore associations between phenotypic traits and polymorphisms in the DRB1 and GALNT6 gene in Nellore, Deccani and Kenguri sheep naturally infected with Haemonchus contortus. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood and faecal samples were collected to evaluate fecal worm egg counts (FEC), packed cell volume (PCV), hemoglobin (Hb), eosinophilia and for DNA isolation. RESULTS: Animals were grouped into susceptible...
