“…Nematodes were recorded to be of highest prevalence (62.37%) followed by trematodes (56.02%) and cestodes (47.63%) (Table 1 and Figure 1). Similar findings were reported by Gupta et al, in 2013;Poddar et al, Islam et al, Ahmed et al, Sanalkumar et al, and Sohail et al, in 2017 and in 2018 by Jena et al, The higher prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in tropical, subtropical and also temperate climates could be attributed to their wide range of adaptability (Soulsby, 1966;Sanyal, 1998 andPoddar et al, 2017). Rainy season was recorded to have highest overall prevalence of 94.84% followed by 86.77% in winter and the lowest being recorded at 76.77% in the summer months (P<0.01) (Table 1and Figure 2).…”

“…This problem has been neglected time and again due to its chronic and insidious nature (Sanyal, 1998), although the losses are in millions of rupees (Shan and Chaudhry, 1995). It has always been a major impediment in small ruminant production and this problem is severe in (Gupta et al, 2013). Epidemiological pattern of gastrointestinal helminth parasites would shed some light for evolving strategic tactical control of these parasites (Jithendran, 2000).…”

“…Lower infection rates in western plain zone and western zone may be due to the fact that these areas are drier and hot which leads to the desiccation of the oocysts and hence make the conditions unfavourable for the growth and development of coccidia. Higher prevalence rate of coccidiosis in buffaloes similar to current study had been reported in the past (Manya et al 2008;Gupta et al 2011) and may be due to warm and wet environmental conditions favoured by buffaloes which also proves conducive for the development of pre-parasitic free living stages of these parasites (Muraleedharan 2005). Further, the feeding habits and habitats of buffaloes and non adoption of prophylactic measures against coccidiosis which is never a part of regular deworming for calves in field conditions contribute heavily towards the high prevalence rates of coccidiosis in buffaloes (Bilal et al 2009).…”

A total of 2089 faecal samples (956 buffaloes and 1133 cattle) were collected from 21 districts of five major agro-climatic zones of Punjab during April, 2013-May, 2014. An overall prevalence rate of 32.17 % (672/ 2089) was recorded for coccidiosis in dairy animals with a significantly higher (P \ 0.01) infection rate in buffaloes (35.46 %) in comparison to cattle (29.39 %). Quantitative analysis revealed oocyst per gram of faeces ranging from 200 to 10,000 (1083.72 ± 227.20) and 100 to 2400 (748.72 ± 81.38), in cattle and buffalo populations, respectively. The results of multivariate analysis showed that prevalence of coccidiosis in cattle population was associated with various risk factors viz. districts (P = 0.000; OR 2.749; 95 % CI 1.238-6.107), agro-climatic zones (P = 0.004; OR 2.707; 95 % CI 1.707-4.293) and seasons (P = 0.000; OR 1.106; 95 % CI 0.811-1.509). Similarly, in buffalo population an association with districts (P = 0.000; OR 2.163; 95 % CI 0.702-6.668), agro-climatic zones (P = 0.000; OR 1.237; 95 % CI 0.673-2.277) and seasons (P = 0.100; OR 1.382; 95 % CI 1.003-1.903) was recorded. The findings of the current study would provide a basis for evolving effective control strategy for the management of coccidiosis in dairy animals of the region.

“…Highest prevalence of Haemonchus sp. larva among various larvae reported in coproculture has also been previously reported in the state (Monika et al, 2017 andRenwal et al, 2017) as well as in the other parts of the country (Jithendran and Bhat, 1999;Gupta et al, 2011;Haque et al, 2011;Gupta et al, 2012;Bushra et al, 2013;Jamra et al, 2014;Vanisri et al, 2016;Dogo et al, 2017 andGupta et al, 2018 ) (Table 4). -No sheath and slender body with long oesophagus 1/3 to ½ of the total length of larvae.…”

A total of 617 faecal samples (including 235, 188 and 194 samples from native cows, crossbred cows and buffaloes, respectively) were examined from January 2017 to December 2017, with an overall prevalence rate of 56.73% (native: 60.85%, crossbred: 57.45% and buffaloes: 51.03%) for gastrointestinal nematode infections and mixed infection in 11.35% with no statistical difference (p>0.05). Throughout the whole study period strongyles were found to be the most dominant (47.49%) followed by Strongyloides sp. (16.86%). A highly significant statistical variation (p<0.05) were reported in season wise as well as district wise analysis with maximum infection in rainy season (64.90%) and in Jodhpur district (62.54%), respectively. Quantitative analysis revealed EPG (eggs per gram of faeces) for stongyles ranging from 100-2500 (1291±237.56) and Strongyloides sp. from 100-800 (416.67±75.71). Multivariate binary logistic regression model revealed positive association of rainy (B=0.407) and negative association of summer season (B=-.221) when compared to winter season whereas, association was reported negative in Barmer district (B=0.517) when compared to Jodhpur district. Similarly, comparing to native animals, a negative association in crossbred (B=-0.197) and buffaloes (B=-0.462)was also reported in the study period. Coproculture analysis revealed the presence of nematodes of genera Haemonchus sp. (40.58%), Oesophagostomum sp. (26.09%), Strongyloides sp. (18.84%), Trichostrongylus sp. (8.695%) and Cooperia sp. (5.797%) in decreasing order of prevalence. Considering the impact of the infections on animal production and public health, the current investigation may be used to design rational, economic, selectively effective strategic and locally sustainable control programs against gastrointestinal nematode infections in the dairy animals of arid western plains of Rajasthan.
