G. Nzobadila et al., ALLOZYME VARIATIONS BETWEEN SHEEP OR RABBIT LABORATORY-REARED AND GOAT WILD POPULATIONS OF TRICHOSTRONGYLUS-COLUBRIFORMIS, International journal for parasitology, 23(8), 1993, pp. 1087-1089
Allozyme variation at 3 polymorphic enzyme loci (GPI, PGM, MDH) was st
udied in Trichostrongylus colubriformis. By means of a multivariate an
alysis it was shown that populations of worms harboured by naturally i
nfected goats were genetically different from populations laboratory r
eared in lambs or rabbits. A deficiency of heterozygotes was recorded
in each population studied.
