Abstract
Breeding lines of sheep with resistance (R), resilience (Ri) or susceptibility (S) to nematode infections provide an experimental model to examine the biological mechanisms underlying the ability of some sheep to expel worms and remain healthy without the use of an anthelmintic. Using proteomics we identified differences in the expression of acute phase lymph proteins in the R, Ri and S lambs. The results will assist the development of alternative control strategies to manage nematode infections in livestock.
