Drivers of Hirola Antelope Diet Selection in Natural and Managed Habitat in Eastern Kenya

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Hirola (Beatragus hunteri) populations in eastern Kenya consumed 17 forage species, favoring the grass Chloris virgata and the forbs Commelina benghalensis and C. diffusa. Nutrient analyses showed that natural habitats offered higher phosphorus, magnesium, and digestibility, whereas managed sites provided more sodium, potassium, and crude protein, with

Fertility of Bos indicus and Bos indicus x Bos taurus crossbreed cattle after estrus synchronization.

Theriogenology, 2012
Ninety-five cows (79 Boran and 16 Boran-Brahman crossbreeds) and 107 heifers (55 Boran and 52 Boran x Friesian F1 crossbreeds) were used to determine estrus response, estrus response interval and pregnancy rate following synchronization with prostaglandin (PGF(2)alpha), a progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (PRID) and Synchro-mate B (SMB).

Genome‐Wide Association Study (GWAS) for Linear Body Measurements of Sussex Cattle (Bos taurus) at Weaning and Yearling Age in South Africa

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
These results show that GWAS can be a useful tool for recognising novel loci and unravelling the genetic basis of complex economic traits. Sussex cattle exhibited candidate genes (RAB31, BIRC5, TEX22, CFAP100 and LOC617705) as potential candidate genes for linear body measurement traits, which could serve as significant marker information for genome ...

Genomic Evaluation in Nellore Cattle for Reproductive Traits: Multiple Ways to Account for Missing Pedigrees

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 1, Page 13-23, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Missing pedigrees are a common problem in most populations. Animals with unknown ancestors are usually treated as founders; however, this can underestimate inbreeding, not properly account for different base populations, and bias breeding values.

Harvest Method Influences Color Stability of Longissimus Lumborum Steaks from Bos indicus Cattle

Meat and Muscle Biology, 2019
Brazil is a major beef exporter to countries where religious slaughter without stunning is mandatory. Fresh beef color influences consumers’ purchase decisions, and harvest method influences beef quality attributes, such as color, water holding capacity,
