Exploring Genetic Factors Associated with <i>Moniezia</i> spp. Tapeworm Resistance in Central Anatolian Merino Sheep via GWAS Approach

Gastrointestinal parasite (GIP) infections pose significant challenges in pasture-based sheep farming, leading to economic losses and welfare concerns. This study aimed to uncover the genetic basis of resistance to <i>Moniezia</i> spp. infections in Central Anatolian Merino (CAM) sheep....
