Interaction between copper oxide wire particles and Duddingtonia flagrans in lambs

Veterinary Parasitology, 2005
An experiment was completed to determine if copper oxide wire particles (COWP) had any effect on the activity of the nematode-trapping fungus Duddingtonia flagrans in growing lambs. COWP has been used recently as a dewormer in small ruminants because of nematode resistance to anthelmintics. D.

Predacious activity of Duddingtonia flagrans within the cattle faecal pat

Journal of Helminthology, 2002
AbstractTwo studies were conducted to investigate the growth and activity of the fungus, Duddingtonia flagrans, within cattle faecal pats. Artificial faecal pats were constructed with the centre separated from the outer layer by a nylon mesh. Eight treatments were tested, by varying the presence/absence of Cooperia oncophora eggs and fungal spores ...

Trematodes enhance the development of the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys (Duddingtonia) flagrans

Fungal Biology, 2013
The capability of helminth (nematode and trematode) parasites in stimulating nematode trap and chlamydospore development of the nematophagous fungus Arthrobotrys (formerly Duddingtonia) flagrans was explored. Dead adult specimens of trematodes (the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica and the rumen fluke Calicophoron daubneyi) and nematodes (the ascarid ...

Failure of Duddingtonia flagrans to reduce gastrointestinal nematode infections in dairy ewes

Veterinary Parasitology, 2007
A field study was conducted on three Swiss farms to investigate the efficacy of Duddingtonia flagrans against naturally acquired infections of gastrointestinal nematodes in adult dairy sheep. On each farm the ewes were divided into two equal groups. One group received Duddingtonia during a period of 4 months at a daily dose rate of 10(6) chlamydospores

Survival of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans to in vitro segments of sheep gastrointestinal tract

Experimental Parasitology, 2021
The nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans is used in integrated management of gastrointestinal nematodes in ruminants. The chlamydospores of the fungus, orally administered, pass through the segments of the ruminant digestive tract and, in the feces, capture the nematodes preventing their migration to grasslands.

The preventive effect of the fungus Duddingtonia flagrans on trichostrongyle infections of lambs on pasture

International Journal for Parasitology, 1997
Four groups of 8 parasite-naive Dorset-crossbred lambs, 3-4 months old, were turned out on infected pasture on 2 May and allocated to 4 separate paddocks. From May to September, 2 groups received Duddingtonia flagrans (10(6) chlamydospores per kg body weight per lamb per day) mixed in 100 g of barley, while the other 2 groups received barley only.

Formulation of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans in the control of equine gastrointestinal parasitic nematodes

Veterinary Parasitology, 2021
Equine gastrointestinal nematodiosis contributes to the lower productivity of these animals. There are growing reports of the emergence of nematodes resistant to the drugs used for decades in anthelmintic treatments. An alternative to the emergence of resistance may be the use of nematophagous fungi as a complementary method of treatment.

The ability of the nematode-trapping fungus Duddingtonia flagrans to reduce the transmission of

Journal of Helminthology, 1999
The ability of two isolates of the nematode-trapping fungus Duddingtonia flagrans to reduce the numbers of gastrointestinal nematode larvae on herbage was tested in three plot studies. Artificially prepared cow pats containing Ostertagia ostertagi eggs,

Efficiency of Duddingtonia flagrans against Trichostrongyle infections of sheep on mountain pastures

Veterinary Parasitology, 2006
The control of sheep nematode parasites in extensive mountain/transhumant management systems using the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans was assessed in this study. Two groups of Churra Tensina ewes were allowed to graze for 8 weeks in autumn on two separate paddocks of infected pasture near their winter sheds in the valley.

Preparation and application of biocontrol formulation of nematode-trapping fungus-Duddingtonia flagrans

Veterinary Parasitology
The use of nematophagous fungi as a biological control strategy for parasitic gastrointestinal nematodes (GINs) in livestock holds promise as an innovative alternative approach. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of a lyophilized Duddingtonia flagrans preparation, utilized in association with the anthelmintics ivermectin or albendazole,
