Y chromosome variants in cattle Bos taurus and Bos indicus [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 1982
Summary It is shown that comparison of the size of the Y chromosome between individuals may be made as reliably by computation of measurement relative to the X chromosome as by proportionation relative to the genome in the cell. By either method agreement was found with previous studies : first in placing the Y in the size range, for the cattle ...

Trace element nutrition in the tropical zebu cattle type : lessons from the Gilgel Gibe catchment, Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the tropics, cattle are majorly dependent on natural pastures growing on poor soils and as a result prone to trace element deficiencies. This work investigated several aspects of trace element nutrition in zebu (Bos indicus) cattle, the most widely ...

Sexual development in early- and late-maturing Bos indicus and Bos indicus × Bos taurus crossbred bulls in Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesTheriogenology, 2004
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate sexual development in early- and late-maturing Nelore (Bos indicus) and Canchim (3/8 Bos indicus x 5/8 Bos taurus crossbred) bulls and to determine predictors of sexual precocity, and pubertal and maturity status. In Experiment 1, 12 Nelore bulls where examined from 300 to 900 days of age.

Cattle phenotypes can disguise their maternal ancestry

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2017
Background Cattle are bred for, amongst other factors, specific traits, including parasite resistance and adaptation to climate. However, the influence and inheritance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are not usually considered in breeding programmes.

Heat stress modulates differential response in skin fibroblast cells of native cattle (Bos indicus) and riverine buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis)

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2020
Heat stress in hot climates is a major cause that negatively affects dairy animals, leading to substantial economic loss. The present study was aimed to analyze the effect of heat stress on cellular and molecular levels in dermal fibroblast of cattle and

Composição lipídica de carne bovina de grupos genéticos taurinos e zebuínos terminados em confinamento Lipid composition of meat from zebu and taurine cattle finished in confinement

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2009
O objetivo neste trabalho foi avaliar a composição em lipídeos totais, colesterol e ácidos graxos do músculo longissimus dorsi de bovinos Bos taurus (n=40) e Bos indicus (n=40) com 30 a 36 meses de idade e peso de carcaça entre 240 e 270 kg terminados em

Alternative genotyping method for the single nucleotide polymorphism A2959G (AF159246) of the bovine CAST gene Método alternativo de genotipagem do polimorfismo de nucleotídeo único A2959G (AF159246) do gene CAST bovino

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2008
The objective of this work was to genotype the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) A2959G (AF159246) of bovine CAST gene by PCR-RFLP technique, and to report its use for the first time. For this, 147 Bos indicus and Bos taurus x Bos indicus animals were

Y-chromosome genetic diversity of Bos indicus cattle in close proximity to the centre of domestication

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Y-chromosome genetic diversity in and around its domestication origin and a better understanding of indicine-specific microsatellite alleles are imperative concerns but less -targeted.
