  • Title: Genetic structure of Oestrus ovis populations in sheep and goats.
    Author: Grisez-Duranton C, Dorchies P, Jourdane J, Durand P.
    Journal: Vet Parasitol; 2002 Mar 01; 104(2):167-73. PubMed ID: 11809335.
    Abstract:
    A genetic analysis using RAPD markers was performed on 12 natural populations of Oestrus ovis (Linné, 1761). Three-hundred and six O. ovis larvae (first, second and third instars) were randomly recovered in nasal cavities of sheep and goats naturally infected in Algeria, Ethiopia, France, Mauritania, Rumania and Tunisia and were analysed by 56 RAPD fragments. The results showed a high diversity within all samples. A significant genetic divergence was showed by discriminant analyses among the 12 populations sampled (p<0.0001). Moreover, discriminant analyses showed significant differentiation (p<0.0001) between O. ovis larva populations of sheep and goats and also among samples collected in the same region.
