The effect of subclinical artificial nematode parasite infection on dry matter intake (DMI), apparent digestibility (AD), efficiency of feed utilisation (EFU), plasma protein (PPC) and albumin concentrations (AC) was examined in lambs of the Horro and Menz breeds. The factorial experimental desi...

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...

Sheep and goats are a major source of income (cash) and food protein for rural farmers in most part of the tropics. In spite of the numerical importance of small ruminants in Ethiopia, their productivity is still low due to poor management, diseases and indaequate nutrition. Direct and indirect l...

The effect of genotype, lactation and season on the periparturient rise in faecal egg counts in Ethiopian highland ewes: preliminary observations. A study was carried out at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) Debre Berhan Research Station Between May 1992 and January 1995 to co...

The effect of dietary protein supplementation on the resistance of lambs to endoparasites was examined in Horro and Menz lambs artificially infected with Haemonchus contortus. The experimental design involved 2 breeds, 2 infection treatments (infected Vs non-infected) and 3 nutrition treatments. ...

Genetic resistance to artificially acquired gastrointestinal parasites was studied in 49 Horro and 103 Menz breeds of Ethiopia. The experimental design involved 2 breeds, 2 infection treatments (Infected vs Non infected) and 3 dietary protein treatments using 152 lambs assigned to the 12 treatmen...

The paper briefly reviews the epidemiology and control of helminth parasites of small ruminants of economic importance in the tropics. Epidemiological factors influencing seasonal availability and acquisition of nematiode larvae and metacercaria by sheep and goats on pasture are discussed. The pa...

Research in Kenya has confirmed that Red Maasai sheep are more resistant to gastrointestinal parasites than Dorper sheep and has shown that Small East African goats are more resistant than Galla goats. There is no difference in resistance between the Menz and Horro sheep breeds in Ethiopia. Herit...
