Optimum timing for assessing phenotypic resistance against gastrointestinal nematodes in Pelibuey ewes [PDF]
The objective was to identify the optimal stage of production to evaluate the resistance of Pelibuey ewes against gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). Faecal egg count (FEC) was used to classify the ewes as resistant, sensible or intermediate against GIN ...
