TL;DR: The influence of dietary protein supplementation on resistance to haemonchosis was examined in Hampshire down lambs fed either a basal diet or a diet supplemented with soyabean, and the dietary supplementation improved the carcase composition of the lambs.

TL;DR: Infected animals on the basal diet were more anaemic and hypoalbuminaemic than animals receiving the supplemented diet, although there were no statistically significant differences in mean worm burdens or faecal egg counts.

TL;DR: Four factors: sire, dam, sex and year accounted for over two-thirds of the variation among older lambs in faecal egg counts, and sex, date of birth, sire and dam were all associated with variation inFaecal Egg counts but the size and significance of their influence was dependent upon the date when faecals were taken.

An ovine lymphocyte antigen is associated with reduced faecal egg counts in four-month-old lambs following natural, predominantly Ostertagia circumcincta infection

TL;DR: The results provide partial confirmation of the role of the major histocompatibility complex in resistance to natural, predominantly O. circumcincta infection.

The influence of relative resistance and urea-supplementation on deliberate infection with Teladorsagia circumcincta during winter.
Michael J. Stear,K. Bairden,J.L. Duncan,Peter David Eckersall,G. Fishwick,Peter A. Graham,P.H. Holmes,Quintin McKellar,S. Mitchell,M. Murray,J.J. Parkins,D.S. Wallace +11 more
TL;DR: A combination of relatively resistant sheep and nutritional supplementation appears most efficient at controlling infection with Teladorsagia circumcincta.
