Abstract
The objectives of this study were to explore herd level species diversity of gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) communities in calves from western Canada and the effects of anthelmintic treatment on their relative species abundance in feedlot steers. Coinfection with multiple GIN species is common in cattle. Exploring the GIN diversity is important to understand parasite epidemiology and particularly the response to control programs; however, research is limited in Canadian beef cattle.
