The present paper reviews the frequency of anthelmintic resistance in sheep farms in
different countries of the American continent and describes some aspects that might …

Infections with gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) remain a major threat for ruminant
production, health and welfare associated with outdoor breeding. The control of these …

Parasitic nematodes of the gastrointestinal tract remain a major constraint associated with
the breeding of small ruminants under grazing/browsing conditions. Until now, control of …

Interactions between host nutrition and feeding behaviour are central to understanding the
pathophysiological consequences of infections of the digestive tract with parasitic …

Simple Summary The spread of helminths resistant to the most common classes of
anthelmintic drugs in sheep and the presence of drug residues in the environment has …

Compared to sheep, goats seem to develop a low immune response against the parasitic
nematodes of the gastrointestinal tract. Nevertheless, some variability in the host response …

Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) could have a negative impact on the nutritional efficiency
and productivity of sheep and goats. However, feeding of the hosts can also affect parasites …

The search for sustainable control regimes for gastrointestinal nematode parasites in
grazing livestock has resulted in strategies that include assisting sheep to promote a strong …

Nowadays, there is growing interest in positive animal welfare not only from the view of
scientists but also from that of society. The consumer demands more sustainable livestock …

Gastrointestinal helminths challenge ruminants in ways that reduce their fitness. In turn,
ruminants have evolved physiological and behavioral adaptations that counteract this …
