Potential of the Predatory Mites Gamasellodes lavafesii (Mesostigmata: Ascidae) and Cosmolaelaps mediocuspis (Mesostigmata: Laelapidae) on Different Soil Pests/Parasites and Alternative Prey for Large‐Scale Rearing

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many species of Mesostigmata soil mites have potential as biological control agents of pests/parasites. This study evaluated the predation potential of two of these species, Gamasellodes lavafesii (Ascidae) and Cosmolaelaps mediocuspis (Laelapidae).

Epidemiology of strongyle nematode infections and first report of benzimidazole resistance in Haemonchus contortus in goats in South Darfur State, Sudan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Since pastoralists in South Darfur, Sudan, had complained about lack of albendazole (ABZ) efficacy to control nematodes in goats, the frequency of infection with gastrointestinal helminths was studied before in vivo faecal egg count reduction

Efficacy of Supplementing Lemongrass Powder on Growth, Metabolism, Immune and Endo‐Parasitic Status of Lambs in the Tropics

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Dietary supplementation of lemongrass powder (0.50 g per kg metabolic body weight) with a basal diet significantly enhanced lamb daily gain, growth velocity, feed efficiency and nutrient digestibility. It increased serum high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C), albumin and IgG concentrations, while reducing aspartate aminotransferase (AST ...
