Abstract excerpt

During a previous investigation an association was found between major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-DRB1 alleles and faecal egg counts following natural infection predominantly involving Ostertagia circumcincta in a flock of Scottish Blackface sheep. To localise the disease-resistance locus w...
