Herpesvirus Infections of Bovidae
1988Herpesviruses of bovine animals restrict the economy of animal-breeding. Some of them cause severe diseases like infectious bovine rhinotracheitis/infectious pustular vulvovaginitis and malignant catarrharal fever, some are involved in immunodepression, and all of them are able to establish latency. Recent molecular biological findings may pave the way

Methemoglobin reductase in three species of Bovidae
Biochemical Genetics, 1978Isoelectric focusing of red cell hemolysates revealed several isozymes that stain for NADH-methemoglobin reductase. Evidence for two different genetic loci controlling the banding patterns was obtained. One locus controlled a single band present in all animals tested.

Dietary Preferences in Extant African Bovidae
Journal of Mammalogy, 2000We present a synthesis of diet information for all 78 species of extant African Bovidae (excluding goats and sheep), based on an extensive survey of the literature. We compiled data on food types (percentages of fruits, dicotelydons, and monocotyledons), seasonal and geographic variability, and body mass.

Male-specific repeats in wild Bovidae
Journal of Applied Genetics, 2012In this study, we investigated repetitive sequences localized on Y chromosomes. Repetitive DNA sequences represent a substantial part of the eukaryotic genome and, among them, a large portion comprises sequences repeated in tandem. Efficient and rapid isolation of repeat units is possible due to a laser microdissection technique used for Y chromosome ...

1990
Abstract The Family Bovidae (antelopes and cattle) is today represented by 123 species, 68 of which are endemic to sub-Saharan Africa (Honacki et al. 1982). It is not clear whether bovids originated in Eurasia or Africa; the earliest occurrences are nearly simultaneous in both regions (early Miocene) and subsequently there were repeated ...

Cytogenetic aspects of phylogeny in the Bovidae
Cytogenetics and Cell Genetics, 2008An extensive G-banding study of karyotypes of 12 species of Bovidae has been undertaken in an attempt to trace homologies and patterns of evolution of karyotype phenotypes throughout the family. G-banding profiles revealed a considerable degree of chromosome-arm homology throughout the group, which also extended into the related superfamilies, the ...

The subfamilies and tribes of the family Bovidae
Mammal Review, 1992AbstractIn this paper 112 skeletal characters in 27 living species of bovids are used in cladistic and phenetic analyses of the relationships among the tribes in the family. Consideration and modification of the cladistic analysis leads to the conclusion that bovids cluster around four foci in ascending evolutionary sequence: Boselaphini and allies ...
