Quantitative genetic aspects of breeding for resistance to gastrointestinal parasites in small ruminants
The aim of this thesis is to explore some of the quantitative genetic aspects of resistance to gastrointestinal nematode parasites in small ruminants. The focus is on animals in temperate areas such as Northern Europe and consequently on the parasite species which poses the main production losses in...
