The program of the Animal Disease and Parasite Division covers research on the
following problem areas: (a) Parasites of sheep and cattle, (b) Pesticide
effectiveness and disease control and eradication, (c) Biological effect of
pesticides, poisonous plants, and chemical controls on animals, (d) Viruses of
sheep, cattle, and goats, (e) Poultry disease and control, (f) Disease agents of
fur animals, (g) Detoxicating mechanisms reducing residue of pesticides and
toxic substances in human and animal foods.
