用驱虫剂处理雌性红松鸡以减少细小毛圆线虫的感染，并与对照组进行了3年的繁殖成功比较。各处理均显著提高了每雌幼虫的产量。繁殖成功与老松鸡的寄生虫数量呈显著的负相关，无论是在地区内还是地区之间(每5年中有4年)。结合现有的模型和前人的研究，讨论了寄生线虫在红松鸡种群周期中的作用。
The breeding success of female red grouse treated with an anthelmintic to reduce an infection of the nematode Trichostrongylus tenuis was compared over a period of 3 years with that of a control group. Treatment significantly increased the production of young per female in all years. Breeding success showed a significant, negative correlation with parasite numbers in old grouse, both within and between areas (in 4 out of 5 years). The role of parasitic nematodes in the population cycles of red grouse are discussed in relation to current models and previous studies.
