Innate Immune Responses Associated with Resistance against Haemonchus contortus in Morada Nova Sheep. [PDF]

J Immunol Res, 2019
The immune response against Haemonchus contortus infections is primarily associated with the Th2 profile. However, the exact mechanisms associated with increased sheep resistance against this parasite remains poorly elucidated. The present study is aimed at evaluating mediators from the innate immune response in lambs of the Morada Nova Brazilian breed

Economic impact of gastrointestinal nematodes in Morada Nova sheep in Brazil. [PDF]

Rev Bras Parasitol Vet, 2022
Abstract This study evaluated the economic impact of gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infection in Morada Nova lambs under different parasite chemical control conditions. For this, 246 lambs, in the rainy and dry season, were randomized into groups according to their anthelmintic treatment with levamisole: control (CT: no treatment); routine treatment ...

Genome-Wide Association Study for Haemonchus contortus Resistance in Morada Nova Sheep. [PDF]

Pathogens, 2022
Among the gastrointestinal nematodes affecting sheep, Haemonchus contortus is the most prevalent and virulent, resulting in health problems and production losses. Therefore, selecting sheep resistant to H. contortus is a suitable and sustainable strategy for controlling endoparasites in flocks.

Membrane-associated proteins of ejaculated sperm from Morada Nova rams

Theriogenology, 2013
The objective was to describe the profile of membrane proteins from sperm of tropically adapted Morada Nova rams (N = 5). Samples from protein-enriched fractions of ejaculated sperm (containing 400 μg of protein) were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis and respective maps analyzed using PDQuest software (version 7.3.0; Bio-Rad). Proteins were
