Allelic Polymorphism at Igha Gene in Resistance to Gastrointestinal Nematodes of Kumaon Hill Goats
The research had shown variation in immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGHA) constant region and its resistance to gastrointestinal parasites. The variation in caprine IGHA gene which encode for hinge region results in variation in flexibility of Immunoglobulin. A molecule in recognising parasitic epitopes and subsequent immune response. This result in structurally and functionally different IgA molec...
متن کاملThe genetic basis for the selection of dairy goats with enhanced resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) severely affect small ruminant production worldwide. Increasing problems of anthelmintic resistance have given strong impetus to the search for alternative strategies to control GIN. Selection of animals with an enhanced resistance to GIN has been shown to be successful in sheep. In goats, the corresponding information is comparatively poor. Therefore, the prese...
متن کاملA survey on the occurrence of resistance to anthelmintics of gastrointestinal nematodes of goats in Mozambique.
A survey to study the extent of anthelmintic resistance was conducted in Maputo and Gaza, two of the ten provinces of Mozambique, during February and March, 1999. A total of 12 flocks, six in Maputo and six in Gaza, was surveyed. The faecal egg count reduction test was used to assess the efficacy of three anthelmintics most often used in Mozambique, namely albendazole, fenbendazole and levamiso...
متن کاملEffects of Sainfoin Hay on Gastrointestinal Infection with Nematodes in Goats
Due to development of resistances to broad spectrum anthelmintics in parasitic nematodes combined with the increasing demand of public to reduce the use of chemicals in farm products, there is nowadays a growing interest to seek alternative, sustainable methods to control gastrointestinal trichostrongyles in ruminants. Among the different options, the positive effects of condensed tannins in pa...
متن کاملHerbal dewormer fails to control gastrointestinal nematodes in goats.
Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) parasitism is the most important disease of small ruminants. Control is usually based on the use of chemical anthelmintics (dewormers); but these are prohibited from use in organic livestock, and the effectiveness of chemical anthelmintics in conventional operations is limited by high levels of anthelmintic resistance. Consequently, herbal dewormers are increasin...
