Prevalence and Intensity of Strongyles in Buffaloes at Nimar Region of M.P.

Abstract

A total of 687 faecal samples of buffalo were screened for the prevalence and intensity (egg per gram of faeces) of strongyle eggs. The samples positive for strongyle were subjected to coproculture to recover and identify third stage larvae. The overall prevalence and intensity of were 15.57% and 277.52 ± 32.53, respectively. The highest intensity of infection was recorded in November (422.73 ± 49.71) and the lowest intensity was in January (127.27 ± 24.65). On coproculture four different genera of strongyle species viz. Haemonchus spp., Trichostrongylus spp., Bunostomum spp. and Oesophagostomum spp. were identified. Haemonchus spp. was the predominant strongyle in both summer and winter season followed by Trichostrongylus spp., Oesophagostomum spp. and Bunostomum sp.
