Effect of Experimental Infection with Haemonchus contortus on Parasitological and Local Cellular Responses in Resistant and Susceptible Young Creole Goats
Figure 4
Geometric means of fecal egg count (FEC) comparing resistant and susceptible Creole kids (∆ resistant, □ susceptible) experimentally infected with 10,000 H. contortus infective larvae (L3) at day 0 postinfection. 1Challenges 1 and 2, first and second challenge with 10,000 H. contortus L3. 2GS: genetic status against gastrointestinal nematode infection. 3DPI: days post-infection, number of days after the animals were infected with 10,000 H. contortus L3. : interaction between days postinfection and genetic status.
