  • Title: Epidemiology of gastrointestinal nematodes of sheep and goats in Haryana, India.
    Author: Gupta RP, Yadav CL, Chaudhri SS.
    Journal: Vet Parasitol; 1987 Apr; 24(1-2):117-27. PubMed ID: 3590608.
    Abstract:
    Epidemiological studies on some gastrointestinal nematodes of sheep and goats in Karnal, Ambala and Rohtak districts of Haryana (India) revealed that Haemonchus contortus and Trichostrongylus spp. were responsible for parasitic gastroenteritis in these hosts. The adult parasites persisted in the host throughout the year and there was no indication of hypobiosis. The maintenance of the parasite population depended on a continuous cycle of infection between the host and the pasture. The agroclimatic conditions of the districts revealed that, in general, favourable weather conditions for the development and survival of the free-living stages of the parasites existed all year round.
