摘要：

The developing immunity of sheep to Trichostrongylus colubriformis infections was described by a mathematical function. The rate of adult establishment was assumed to be a measure of the host's acquired immunity to this parasite. Prediction of establishment from infection rate and host age was used to estimate worm burden, worm rejection and arrested development. © 1990.
