Genetic variation among lambs in peripheral IgE activity against the larval stages of Teladorsagia circumcincta.

abstract：:Multiple infections, those by more than one parasite in the same erythrocyte, may be adaptive for the malarial parasite as a means to ensure fertility. Alternatively they may simply be the consequence of a non-adaptive process forcing several parasites to compete for resources in one host cell. Avian hosts infected wi...
