The project aims to develop and evaluate molecular tests for the detection of gastrointestinal parasites in sheep and their resistance status to anthelmintics. The genetic markers will then be tested in two major sheep flocks to provide an evidence base for a monitoring program that, ultimately, will be compared with and eventually replace the currently used systems. The goal is to prevent the spread of resistant parasites to sheep flocks in a more efficient manner than is the case today.
Our hypothesis is that the morbidity of parasite-afflicted flocks is generally higher than in those which can still control the pathogens. A consequence of the lack of accurate parasite monitoring is that anthelmintics are used inappropriately. This inevitably leads to increased resistance, which in turn provides increased morbidity whereby production is adversely affected by, for example, reduced growth and higher lamb mortality.
I projektet utvecklas molekylära tester för detektion av mag- och tarmparasiter hos får och för mätning om de är resistenta mot avmaskningsmedel. De genetiska markörerna kommer initialt att utvärderas i två större fårbesättningar för att lägga grunden till ett övervakningsprogram som kommer att jämföras med och som på sikt är tänkt att ersätta den diagnostik som används idag. Målet är att förhindra spridning resistenta parasiter till större fårbesättningar på ett effektivare sätt än vad som sker idag.
Vår hypotes är att sjukligheten i parasitbelastade besättningar generellt är högre än i de som effektivt kontrollerar dessa smittämnen. En följd av bristande övervakning är att avmaskningsmedel används i onödan och på ett felaktigt vis. Detta leder till att problem med anthelmintikaresistens sprids och blir allt vanligare vilket i sin tur ger ökad sjuklighet. Produktionen påverkas i dessa fall negativt genom exempelvis nedsatt tillväxt och högre lammdödlighet.

The aim of the project is to study effects of LED-light on milk production and activity in dairy cows. The main hypotheses are that LED light allows maintained cow activity and milk production with less energy used for illumination, and that LED-light makes it possible to apply a dark period during …
