Biochemical methane potential of sheep manure: Focus in pathogen removal
(International Organization of Scientific Research, 2019-01)Biochemical methane potential (BMP) test is a useful laboratory-scale tool to determine the biodegradability and methane potential from different manure. The aims of this study were to evaluate the BMP of sheep manure and ... -
Candidate Gene Approach for Parasite Resistance in Sheep – Variation in Immune Pathway Genes and Association with Fecal Egg Count
(Plos One, 2014-02-12)Sheep chromosome 3 (Oar3) has the largest number of QTLs reported to be significantly associated with resistance to gastro-intestinal nematodes. This study aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within ... -
Comparative review of brucellosis in small domestic ruminants
(Frontiers Media, 2022-05)Brucella melitensis and Brucella ovis are the primary etiological agents of brucellosis in small domestic ruminants. B. melitensis was first isolated in 1887 by David Bruce in Malta Island from spleens of four soldiers, ... -
Enteric methane emission from Sheep fed with rhodes grass hay (Chloris gayana) alone or supplemented with dried distillers’ grains with solubles
(MDPI, 2022-09)Livestock systems based on subtropical and tropical pastures are characterized by the low productivity of livestock due to the poor nutritional value of the forage (low nitrogen concentration and digestibility, and high ... -
Estudio de variables biológicas ante un desafío artificial de L3 de H. contortus en dos majadas de ovinos Corriedale
(Asociación Argentina de Producción Animal, 2022-11)H. contortus es uno de los parásitos que ocasiona mayores problemas en regiones templadas, tropicales y subtropicales debido a pérdidas productivas y económicas. La utilización de drogas es fundamental para el control de ... -
Experimental infection of sheep with bovine leukemia virus (BLV): minimum dose of BLV-FLK cells and cell-free BLV and neutralization activity of natural antibodies = Infección experimental en ovinos con el virus de leucosis bovina: dosis mínima de células BLV-FLK y virus libre de células, y actividad neutralizante de anticuerpos naturales
(Elsevier España, 2019-12)Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an important cattle pathogen that causes major economic losses worldwide, especially in dairy farms. The use of animal models provides valuable insight into the pathogenesis of viral infections. ... -
Genetic resistance to gastrointestinal parasites in sheep
(CAB International, 2023-06)Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infection is the most common disease affecting sheep production systems throughout the world, causing significant productive and economic losses. The control of these parasites was traditionally ... -
Genome-wide identification of the mutation uderlying fleece variation and discriminating ancestral hairy species from modern woolly sheep
(Oxford university press, 2017-07)The composition and structure of fleece variation observedin mammals is a consequence of a strong selective pressure for fiber production after domestication. In sheep, fleece variation discriminates ancestral species ... -
High genetic diversity and differentiation of the babesia ovis population in Turkey
(Wiley, 2020-07)Babesia ovis is a tick‐transmitted protozoan haemoparasite causing ovine babesiosis in sheep and goats leading to considerable economic loss in Turkey and neighbouring countries. There are no vaccines available, therapeutic ... -
Integrating technologies for the sustainable control of gastrointestinal parasites in sheep : The Argentinean case
(FAO, 2023)Gastrointestinal nematode infections in sheep are a major concern among breeders due to the economic losses they cause in terms of a reduction in both productivity and viability of animals. The situation worsens in face ... -
Llama and sheep ruminal fluid digestive capacity by in vitro gas production technique
(Wiley, 2022-03)BACKGROUND: The in vitro gas production technique has been used to evaluate forage fermentation kinetics. However, individual and animal species variation can change fermentation patterns due to differences in ruminal ... -
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) molecular diversity in cattle, sheep, and goats from Latin America and the Caribbean: a systematic review
(Springer, 2021-09)This study aimed to systematically collect and appraise the scientific evidence to answer the research question: What MAP genotypes have been isolated from cattle, sheep, and goats in Latin America and the Caribbean? An ... -
Potential contribution of genomics and biotechnology in animal production
(Biblioteca Básica de Agricultura, 2015)Integration of Latin American countries into international agricultural markets requires animal production systems to be competitive. Demand of animal products is increasing due to population growth, and changes in lifestyle ... -
Resistencia genética a las parasitosis gastrointestinales en ovinos : resultados en dos majadas Corriedale
(Asociación Argentina de Criadores de Corriedale, 2021)En la región noreste de Argentina se crían aproximadamente 2,1 millones de ovinos (14,2% del total de ovinos del país) en 37.288 unidades productivas (31,6% del total de unidades) y en la región central se crían 2,7 millones ... -
Selection of highly susceptible cell lines to Foot and Mouth disease virus infection
(Scientific Research, 2013-09)Different non-established cultures were examined to find those that showed high sensitivity to Foot and Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV). Ovine kidney cultures showed high sensitivity to types A, O and C, and were suitable to ... -
Single nucleotide polymorphisms from candidate genes associated with nematode resistance and resilience in Corriedale and Pampinta sheep in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021-02)Selective breeding of genetically resistant animals is considered a promising strategy to face the problem of nematode resistance to anthelmintics and mitigate concerns about the presence of chemical residues in animal ... -
