Gastrointestinal nematode larvae in the grazing land of cattle in Guwahati, Assam
2016
Overview
To know the prevalence of gastrointestinal nematode larvae (L
) in the grazing land of cattle in Guwahati, Kamrup district, Assam.
Pastures were collected and examined for the presence of nematode larvae (L
) from six localities of Guwahati at monthly interval from August 2012 to July 2013. The counted larvae were then expressed as per kg dry matter of herbage (L
/kg DM).
Examination of pastures revealed presence of nematode larvae (L
) in pastures throughout the year which varied from 4.5 L
/kg DM in January to a maximum of 106.33 L
/kg DM in August. The L
of
,
spp.,
spp.,
spp., and
spp. were recovered from pastures. The average pasture larval burden (PLB) was 34.75±3.48 L
/kg DM. Season-wise PLB revealed the presence of 23.89±3.01, 67.54±5.41, 26.67±1.92, and 7.28±0.89 L
/kg DM during pre-monsoon, monsoon, post-monsoon, and winter seasons, respectively. Monsoon season has significant (p<0.05) effect on PLB. However, analysis of variance of different locations with respect to season revealed that there was no significant difference but season-wise it was highly significant (p<0.01). Pearson correlation of environmental variables (temperature, relative humidity, and rainfall) with PLB revealed correlation was statistically significant with rainfall (p<0.05).
This study reveals the presence of five nematode larvae (L
) in the pastures of Guwahati, Assam throughout the year, statistically significant during monsoon season.
