Genetic resistance to parasitic infection.

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics) - 1 Apr 1998

Stear M J, Wakelin D

Abstract excerpt

The ability of animals to resist infections with parasites is genetically determined and therefore variable between individuals or breeds of a given host species. Such variation may involve innate (non-immunological) and acquired (immunologically mediated) resistance mechanisms, and is determined by both major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-linked and non-MHC genes. Resistance is inherited as a dominant trait,...
