The current situation of anthelmintic resistance in Brazil predicts low expectations for an increase in the number of small ruminants. However, studies indicate that the efficacy of Anthelmintics (AH) can be restored by replacing the parasitic population in sheep, here called Worm Replacement (WR). Thus, this proposal aims to evaluate and monitor the effect of partial and total replacemen…
Major economic losses in sheep production are caused by gastrointestinal nematode parasites, mainly by Haemonchus contortus, e by resistance to the anthelmintics used in their control. Therefore, this study was designed to increase knowledge in monepantel anthelmintic resistance and for H. contortus control in sheep. Firstly, polymorphisms detected in a genome-wide study will be validated…
The main losses in sheep production are caused by gastrointestinal nematodes, mainly Haemonchus contortus, and by anthelmintic resistance. Currently, monepantel is the only effective anthelmintic in several flocks. Resistance results from increased frequency of favorable genes to survival in population. Despite advancements of the candidate gene approaches to associate genetic polymorphis…

Ovine nematodesioses added to anthelmintic resistance cause huge declines in productivity, especially increasing mortality and morbidity rates. Haemonchus contortus, Trichostrongylus spp., Oesophagostomum sp. and Cooperia sp. are the main species of nematodes that demonstrate resistance to the main anthelmintics. The present study aims to use deep amplicon sequencing methodology for the d…
Resistance to anthelmintics is reported in several locations around the world, not only for the parasites of humans, but also to the parasites of veterinary importance. H. contortus, the most important parasite for small ruminants reared in tropical conditions, can develop resistance to anthelmintics used for their control. Resistance is caused by increased frequency of favorable genes to…

Morada Nova is an indigenous Brazilian hair sheep breed well adapted to tropical climate regions. Among its economically important traits are good reproductive performance and high nematode gastrointestinal resistance. In the worldwide scenario of multiple anthelmintic resistance, parasite resistance is a very interesting trait for animal selection to avoid productive and economic losses.…
The production cost of the Nelore cattle is high, especially the fraction related to animal nutrition. The increase of feed efficiency (FE) may provide increased beef production efficiency, minimizing feed expenditures and production of methane gas and nitrogen excretion. Residual feed intake (RFI) is one of the most adopted measurements of feed efficiency, but it is a complex trait contr…
