Abstract excerpt
We compared, some fitness-related traits of benzimidazole resistant (rr) and susceptible (rS, SS) worms of Teladorsagia circumcincta, a gastrointestinal parasite of the small ruminants, under laboratory conditions. PCR was used to determine the genotypes (rr, SS, rS) and the fitness of each was c...
