A. aResistance of sheep of different breeds to infestation by Ostertagia circumcincta.h[electronic resource] c1937 aAbstract : A group of 29 lambs consisting of 5 breeds and one group of cross-breds was pastured on irrigated pasture and given supplementary food. Ostertagia circumcincta was known to be present on the pasture and the authors, assuming that the egg count indicated the degree of infestation with O. circumcincta, have shown by fortnightly egg counts over a period of one year that there was a significant variation in the susceptibility of the different herds to this infection. The results are analysed by Fisher's pairing method and show that Romneys are outstanding in their resistance, followed by Rambouillet, Southdown, Shropshire and lastly Hampshire sheep. aAnimal parasitic nematodes aHelminths aLambs aNematode infections aParasites aSheep diseases aStrongylidae aOvino aParasitologia aControle aEctoparasito aHelminthoses aNematódeo gastrintestinal aOstertagia circumcincta aParasitic worms aParasitosis aSecernentea1 aMILLER, R.
