Whole mitochondrial genomes unveil the impact of domestication on goat matrilineal variability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The current extensive use of the domestic goat (Capra hircus) is the result of its medium size and high adaptability as multiple breeds. The extent to which its genetic variability was influenced by early domestication practices is largely ...

Epididymal sperm reserves of the goat (Capra hircus) [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction, 1980
Epididymal sperm reserves were determined in 6 sexually mature goats. The numbers of spermatozoa in the caput, corpus and cauda epididymidis were 1.90 +/- 0.16, 0.66 +/- 0.04 and 6.18 +/- 0.91 x 10(9) respectively and they represented 21.7, 7.5 and 70.8% respectively of the sperm reserve on that side.

Are human‐altered landscapes reshaping carnivore niche spaces in the Trans‐Himalaya?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding carnivore interactions under growing human pressures is crucial for conservation. We examined spatial and temporal niche structuring among snow leopards Panthera uncia, Himalayan wolves Canis lupus chanco, and red foxes Vulpes vulpes; while also incorporating free‐ranging dogs Canis lupus familiaris as a human‐subsidized mesopredator ...

Pattern of ancient goat migration revealed by AFLP molecular markers

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
Domestic goat (Capra hircus) is a very adaptable and geographically spread livestock species. Recent studies on mitochondrial DNA diversity suggest that goats have been the most widely transported and traded livestock species.

Improving stress coping ability: comparison between the CYP17 genotype Of Ovis Aries and Capra Hircus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ability of animals to adapt to stress is not only an animal health and welfare concern, but also influences reproduction potential and robustness. An important pathway involved in the stress response is the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPAA ...

DNA metabarcoding reveals wolf dietary patterns in the northern Alps and Jura Mountains

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for wildlife management and human–wildlife coexistence, particularly in multi‐use landscapes such as western Europe. As wolves Canis lupus recolonize their former habitats, knowledge of their diet is essential for conservation, management and public acceptance.

Mammary Intraductal Carcinoma in Goats (Capra hircus) [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Pathology, 1972
Three intraductal carcinomas were found in the mammary glands of 220 goats. The affected glands were indurated and had multiple grey-white dots resembling areas of suppuration on their cut surfaces. The growths were multicentric and had diffuse intraluminal proliferation of cells, giving laciform, cribriform or solid appearance to the epithelium.

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-136, March 2025.
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.
