Genetic diversity and population structure of old world camelids (camelus dromedaries and camelus bactrianus) in iran using mitochondrial dna [PDF]
This study was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity of Iranian camels using mitochondrial DNA. A fragment of 1052 bp cyt-b was amplified and sequenced in 120 individuals from four camel populations.

Kinetics of polychlorinated biphenyls in Bactrian camels [PDF]
The study aimed to determine the accumulation and depuration of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in Bactrian camels. Four lactating, two-humped camels (Camelus bactrianus) received 0.8 mg PCBs (1.3 μg/kg body weight) daily for 56 days. Then, the depuration of the animals was monitored for the next 4 months.

Genome sequences of wild and domestic bactrian camels [PDF]
Bactrian camels serve as an important means of transportation in the cold desert regions of China and Mongolia. Here we present a 2.01 Gb draft genome sequence from both a wild and a domestic bactrian camel. We estimate the camel genome to be 2.38 Gb, containing 20,821 protein-coding genes.

Influence of Bactrian camel milk on the gut microbiota [PDF]
Bactrian camel milk has become popular in the market as an important source of nutrients with diverse functional effects. In this study, the influence of Bactrian camel milk on the gut microbiota of mice was studied using metagenomic-based sequencing of the V3 and V4 hypervariable regions of the 16S rRNA gene.

Hormone measurements and histomorphological observations in male Bactrian camels
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Bactrian camel age on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis hormone and to determine the morphological changes of the testis. The Bactrian camels were divided into two groups based on their ages, including three years old (puberty) and six years old (adult).
