Genetically resistant sheep avoid parasites to a greater extent than do susceptible sheep.
Livestock breeding programmes have created resistant (R) and susceptible (S) sheep that differ in their ability to control parasites through their immune function but potentially also their grazing behaviour (i.e. parasite avoidance). Using the Perendale genetic lines, we tested the hypothesis that R-sheep avoid parasites more effectively, reducing their parasite exposure/challenge, compared wi...
متن کاملUse of Microsatellite Polymorphisms in Ovar-DRB1 Gene for Identifying Genetic Resistance in Fat-Tailed Ghezel Sheep to Gastrointestinal Nematodes
This study was designed to identify genetically resistant animals to gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infections using microsatellite polymorphisms of Ovar-DRB1 gene in Iranian Ghezel sheep breed lambs. In the present study 120 male Ghezel lambs were at 4 to 6 months of age randomly selected from six different sheep flocks in East Azerbaijan province (n=20 per flock). These lambs were naturally ...
متن کاملMucosal inflammatory responses after experimental infection with gastrointestinal nematodes in resistant and susceptible sheep naturally infected with Oestrus ovis
Recent epidemiological observations from field studies indicated that sheep selected for resistance to digestive nematodes were more infected than susceptible ones with the nasal bot fly, Oestrus ovis. The present study was undertaken to verify these informations and to explore the possible associated mechanisms. After a whole grazing season and an anthelmintic drench, two groups of 6 rams belo...
متن کاملCucumber Response to Sphaerotheca fuliginea: Differences in Antioxidant Enzymes Activity and Pathogenesis-Related Gene Expression in Susceptible and Resistant Genotypes
Cucurbits powdery mildew is one of the most detrimental diseases of cucumber plants worldwide. A detailed insight into the biological processes leading to resistance or susceptibility to the pathogen would pave the road for an efficient disease-resistance breeding program. In the present study, the molecular and biochemical responses of a resistant vs. a susceptible cucumber cultivar infected w...
متن کاملAdaptive Changes in Mycobacterium avium Gene Expression Profile Following Infection of Genetically Susceptible and Resistant Mice
We performed a comparative analysis ofMycobacterium aviumtranscriptomes (strain 724R) in infected mice of two different strains- resistant and susceptible to infection. Sets of mycobacterial genes transcribed in lung tissue were defined, and differentially transcribed genes were revealed. Our results indicate thatM. aviumgenes coding for enzymes of the Krebs cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, NO...
