Bos indicus, the zebu

, 2008
Zebus or humped cattle are the typical cattle of the South Asian subcontinent. At present, there are thirty or more zebu breeds in India. The recognized breeds differ mainly in the shape and firmness of the hump, horn size, ranging from long-horned to very short-horned or even almost rudimentary horns, and horn shape, ranging from lyre-shaped through ...

Genetic identification of gastrointestinal parasites in the world's most endangered ungulate, the hirola (Beatragus hunteri)

Veterinary Record, Volume 196, Issue 12, 21/28 June 2025.
Abstract Background The hirola (Beatragus hunteri) is the world's most critically endangered antelope. Its parasitic fauna has never been genetically characterised, raising questions about its possible role in the species' population decline. This study aimed to assess the presence of gastrointestinal parasites in hirolas and their transmission ...

Grazing Affects Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Directly and Indirectly Through Herbaceous Species Diversity in Sahelian Savanna Ecosystems

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 3490-3498, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The impact of livestock grazing on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in the Sahel has been poorly documented due to a lack of data from different grazing intensities. This study evaluated SOC stocks under four grazing intensities within 0–30 cm soil depth in dry savanna ecosystems of Senegal.

Ovarian Dynamic in Ongole Grade Cattle After GnRH Injection in Ovsynch Protocol Based on Progesterone Device [PDF]

, 2015
PO cattle have weaknesses to show clear estrus signs which cause difficulty in artificial insemination implementation. The present study was designed to obtain ovarian dynamic as effect of GnRH injection in ovsynch protocol based on progesterone ...

Suitability of existing commercial single nucleotide polymorphism chips for genomic studies in Bos indicus cattle breeds and their Bos taurus crosses

Journal of animal breeding and genetics = Zeitschrift fur Tierzuchtung und Zuchtungsbiologie, 2018
Bos indicus cattle breeds are genetically distinct from Bos taurus breeds. We examined the performance of three SNP arrays, the Illumina BovineHD BeadChip (777k; Illumina Inc.), the Illumina BovineSNP50 BeadChip (50k) and the GeneSeek 70k Indicus chip ...

Disturbances in drylands: Interactions among herbivory, drought, and termite activity in savanna plant communities

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 6, Page 1491-1503, June 2025.
This study highlights the potency of top‐down forcing in African 73 savannas. It suggests impressive robustness to drought and underscores the 74 value of multi‐decadal experiments for studying interactions among multiple 75 drivers of ecosystem dynamics. Abstract Climate models predict increases in the frequency and intensity of extreme‐weather events.

Genome-wide association studies for heat stress response in Bos taurus × Bos indicus crossbred cattle.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2019
Heat stress is an important issue in the global dairy industry. In tropical areas, an alternative to overcome heat stress is the use of crossbred animals or synthetic breeds, such as the Girolando.
