Liver fluke parasites cause serious economic losses for livestock producers in South-East Australia, but drug resistance threatens parasite control and economic productivity in rural communities. This project will use novel technologies to identify lead vaccine candidates for improved fluke control to sustain agricultural productivity.

肝吸虫寄生虫给澳大利亚东南部的畜牧业生产者造成了严重的经济损失，但抗药性威胁着农村社区的寄生虫控制和经济生产力。该项目将使用新技术来确定改进吸虫控制以维持农业生产力的主要候选疫苗。
