Breeding for disease resistance in Merino sheep in Australia.

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

Raadsma H W, Gray G D, Woolaston R R

Abstract excerpt

Breeding for disease resistance in Merino sheep in Australia has attracted considerable research and development attention. Increased labour costs, the reduced efficacy of common anthelmintics and insecticides, consumer demand for products which are free of chemicals and the poor prognosis of alternative long-term control strategies are all forcing sheep breeders to contemplate the best animal health options...
