| anthelmintic efficiency of oxfendazole in california lambs. | oxfendazole, methyl 5(6)-phenylsulfinyl-2-benzimidazole carbamate, was given by oral drench (5 mg/kg) to california lambs harboring natural infections of gastrointestinal nematodes. ninety-nine percent of adult ostertagia circumcincta, ostertagia trifurcata, trichostrongylus axei, trichostrongylus vitrinus, trichostrongylus colubriformis, nematodirus filicollis, and nematodirus spathiger were removed by the anthelmintic. | 1977 | 921025 |
| seasonal occurence of infective nematode larvae on irrigated pasture grazed by cattle in california. | during the period extending from dec 1, 1975, to dec 22, 1976, 3 distinct peaks in the concentration of infective nematode larvae on pasture forage were detected by use of helminth-free tracer calves. two of these peaks, 1 occurring in the spring and 1 in the fall, consisted mainly of ostertagia ostertagi and cooperia sp. it is concluded that these 2 peaks can be anticipated annually and constitute unsafe periods of grazing. the 3rd peak was comprised largely of haemonchus placei and cooperia sp ... | 1981 | 7271041 |
| seasonal occurrence of infective nematode larvae in california high sierra pastures grazed by cattle. | worm-free holstein calves were used to assess the seasonal variation in numbers of nematode infective larvae on herbage at 2 commercial cow-calf ranches in the sierra nevada mountains. both ranches used herefords as their basic breed. one ranch near sattley, california, is at an elevation of approximately 1,500 m above sea level, whereas the study area on the 2nd ranch near susanville is at an elevation of approximately 1,250 m above sea level. worm-free tracer calves were allowed to graze for a ... | 1984 | 24049905 |
| seasonal prevalence of gastrointestinal nematodes of beef calves grazed on irrigated pastures in the lower sacramento valley of california. | two worm-free calves were allowed to graze on irrigated pasture with a naturally infected herd for each of 34 one-month periods from november 1979 to august 1982. after each grazing period, the calves were transferred to a cement-floored pen for 3 weeks and then were euthanatized and necropsied. ostertagia ostertagi and cooperia oncophora were the most prevalent species of nematodes recovered. adults and larvae of ostertagia spp and cooperia spp were most numerous in winter and spring and least ... | 1988 | 3377319 |
