This study is aimed to characterize progesterone profiles of Menz ewes during gestation with intent to gain insight into applied clinical endocrinology in early pregnancy diagnosis and monitoring of prenatal reproductive wastage. Mean hormone concentrations were basal, but increased and remained ...

Small ruminants contribute significantly to meat (and sometimes milk) production in Africa and hence in meeting the current shortfall created by the fast rising human population. Flock productivity may, however, be affected by a wide range of disease problems and reproductive wastage. The impact ...

The paper reviews the evidence of genetic resistance to endoparasites both within and between breeds of sheep and goats and assesses the possibilities of breeding for increased resistance. In light of this evidence, ILCA has developed a Pan-African research programme to investigate and characteri...

Describes the seasonal pattern of nematode faecal egg counts of sheep slaughtered at the Addis Ababa abattoir from July 1985 to June 1986. Presents data on strongyle and trichostrongyle faecal egg counts. Suggests possible strategic measures for th econtrol of gastrointestinal nematodes of sheep ...

A retrospective case-control study was conducted on 6718 sheep of two breeds (2772 Horro and 3946 Menz) on risk factors for mortality associated with respiratory disease (MARD) in Ethiopia, based on data collected between October 1993 and December 1997. Potential risk factors examined were breed,...

A study was carried out at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) Debre Berhan Research Station in Ethiopia from 1992 to 1995 to compare the peri-parturient rise (PPR) in faecal nematode egg counts (FEC) in ewes of two indigenous sheep breeds. A total of 1439 Menz and 1347 Horro ew...

The effects of breed and dietary protein supplementation on the development of resistance and resilience to gastrointestinal nematode parasites (endoparasites) were examined in artificially infected Horro and Menz lambs from 4 to 12 months of age. The factorial design involved two breeds, two inf...
