Figure 5

Effects of immunization of two native sheep breeds from Gran Canaria with recombinant antigens derived from T. circumcincta on worm length and egg production. Worm lengths (A) and the number of eggs in utero in female worms (B) are shown for sheep (CS = Canarian sheep; CHB = Canarian Hair Breed sheep) challenged with 2000 T. circumcincta L3 three times per week for 4 weeks following immunization with an 8-protein cocktail in the context of Quil A (CS-VAC; CHB-VAC) or with Quil A only (CS-Control; CHB-Control). The mean worm length or mean number of eggs in utero ± SEM is shown (n = 193, 284, 339 and 278 for CHB-VAC, CHB-Control, CS-VAC and CS-Control respectively).
