The effects of breed (Menz and Horro), season (wet and dry), and the breed by season interaction on production and response to naturally acquired gastro-intestinal (GI) nematode parasite infections (predominantly Longistrongylus elongata and Trichostrongylus spp. and a small proportion of Haemonc...

A study was conducted to estimate heritabilities of, and genetic correlations among, body weight (WT) and testicular measurements - scrotal circumference (SC), testicular diameter (TD), testicular length (TL) and epididymal diameter (ED - in ram lambs between 6, 9 and 12 months old, and relations...

A study was conducted to investigate the effect of season on, and to estimate heritabilities of, and genetic correlations among, semen and spermatozoa characteristics and the relationship of these characteristics with measures of testicular or scrotal size in 6-, 9- and 12-month old ram lambs of ...

A serological survey was carried out in the central highlands of Ethiopia to investigate the significance of maedi-visna on sheep reared in two types of management, on-station and on-farm. A total of 349 serum samples were collected in January 1996 from ILRI Debre Berhan station (n=203) and adjac...

Formulation of cost-effective preventive control programmes for helminth infection in small ruminants should be based on sound epidemiological knowledge of the time relationship between contamination of pastures and the seasonal availability of infective larvae in a given geographic area. Epidemi...
