Population genetic structure of Ascaridia galli re-emerging in non-caged laying hens
Höglund, Johan; Morrison, David; Engström, Annie
Abstract
Conclusions: The investigated A. galli populations were not strongly differentiated, indicating that they have undergone a genetic bottlenecking and subsequent drift. This supports the view that the investigated farms have been recently colonized, and that new flocks are reinfected upon arrival with a stationary infection.
