Signatures of selection for resistance to Haemonchus contortus in sheep and goats

2019-09-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Gastrointestinal nematode infection (GNI) is the most important disease affecting the small ruminant industry in U.S. The environmental conditions in the southern United States are ideal for the survival of the most pathogenic gastrointestinal nematode, Haemonchus contortus . Host genetic variation for resistance to H. contortus allows selective breeding for increased resist...
