Estimation of heritability of susceptibility to infection with Theileria parva in the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus
Heritability of susceptibility to infection with Theileria parva was estimated from full sib families of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus ticks. Male and female ticks of 2 stocks were mated singly. Nineteen full sib families of the Mugufa stock and 17 full sib families of the Kiambu stock were obtained....
