Genetic control of acquired resistance to haemonchosis in Merino lambs
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
The results suggest that the genetic resistance of sheep to H. contorius results from the expression of an acquired immune response, and that anti‐parasite antibodies and mast cell‐derived mediators may play an important role in genetically determined resistance of Sheep to haemonchosis.
