Genetics of disease resistance in small ruminants in Africa
Disease is one of the most important biological constraints to small ruminant production in the many different agroclimatic zones of Africa. Loss of production, high levels of mortality and the cost of drugs are some of the major concerns. Current control strategies include vaccination, medication,...
