DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-19409-5
Abstract: The most natural areas typically host a variety of plant species that serve as nutritional centers for grazing ruminants. We aimed to determine the growth parameters, histology, and ruminal microbial characteristics of lambs with endoparasites… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skae019.106
Abstract: In lambs, the stress of weaning and the lack of a fully developed immune system can increase susceptibility to gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). Lack of an effective GIN control strategy around this time can have a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz258.915
Abstract: We determined whether sheep discriminate among mineral supplements containing P and Mg and if they modify their selection as a function of need. During 3 consecutive days, 40 lambs under a basal diet of alfalfa… read more here.
