    Approximately 80% of Dutch dairy farms had cattle infected with lungworm larvae in 1981. Lungworm infection negatively impacted calf growth, and larvae were dispersed further by sporangia.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Parasitology
    • Animal Health
    • Epidemiology

    Context:

    • High prevalence of Dictyocaulus viviparus (lungworm) infection in Dutch dairy cattle during the 1981 grazing season.
    • Lungworm larvae (L3) pose a significant threat to calf health and productivity.
    • Understanding larval transmission dynamics is crucial for effective disease control.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the prevalence of Dictyocaulus viviparus infection in Dutch dairy cattle.
    • To quantify the impact of lungworm infection on calf growth.
    • To examine the role of Pilobolus kleinii sporangia in larval dispersal.

    Summary:

    • A high proportion (around 80%) of dairy farms in the Netherlands reported cattle infected with Dictyocaulus viviparus L3 larvae in 1981.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Experimental data revealed a significant negative cubic relationship between the level of L3 larvae infection and calf growth.
  • Sporangia of Pilobolus kleinii containing L3 larvae were observed to be ejected significantly farther than uninfected sporangia.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights the substantial economic impact of lungworm infections on the dairy industry.
    • Provides insights into the transmission mechanisms of Dictyocaulus viviparus, particularly the role of fungal sporangia.
    • Informs strategies for managing and preventing parasitic lung diseases in cattle.
    • Contributes to the understanding of host-parasite interactions and environmental larval dispersal.
