Genetic resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes, with special reference to Haemonchus contortus, in three breeds of goats in Kenya
An experiment was carried out to compare the susceptibility to haemonchosis of three breeds of goats and to seek indications of genetic resistance. Twelve East African, nine Galla and 13 East African X Toggenburg crosses were artificially infected with 500 Haemonchus contortus larvae per kg live w...
