Identification of novel loci associated with gastrointestinal parasite resistance in a red Maasai x Dorper backcross population
Gastrointestinal (GI) parasitic infection is the main health constraint for small ruminant production, causing loss of weight and/or death. Red Maasai sheep have adapted to a tropical environment where extreme parasite exposure is a constant, especially with highly pathogenic Haemonchus contortus. T...
