A Spatial Analysis of Rift Valley Fever Virus Seropositivity in Domestic Ruminants in Tanzania [PDF]

, 2015
Rift Valley fever (RVF) is an acute arthropod-borne viral zoonotic disease primarily occurring in Africa. Since RVF-like disease was reported in Tanzania in 1930, outbreaks of the disease have been reported mainly from the eastern ecosystem of the Great ...

The Influence of Sex and Hybrid on the Fattening Parameters of Pigs

Acta Fytotechnica et Zootechnica, 2016
In the experiment, we investigated the effect of the hybrid combination and sex on the fattening parameters of pigs fed with the same feed. The analyzed group consisted of 27 animals. We used the final hybrids of BU x L x PIC and BU x PIC for the testing

Markers of Angiogenesis Associated with Surgical Attenuation of Congenital Portosystemic Shunts in Dogs [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Dogs with congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) have hypoplasia of the intrahepatic portal veins. Surgical CPSS attenuation results in the development of the intrahepatic portal vasculature, the precise mechanism for which is unknown ...

Breed Ancestry, Divergence, Admixture, and Selection Patterns of the Simbra Crossbreed [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
In this study, we evaluated an admixed South African Simbra crossbred population, as well as the Brahman (Indicine) and Simmental (Taurine) ancestor populations to understand their genetic architecture and detect genomic regions showing signatures of selection. Animals were genotyped using the Illumina BovineLD v2 BeadChip (7K).

Efficiency of calf production of cows from two genetic groups

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2014
The objective was to evaluate the effect of weight, age and production efficiency of cows from genetic groups based on the calf weight at calving and at weaning. For a period of five years, data of 120 cows (60 Angus-Nellore (AN) and 60 Simmental-Nellore

Analysis of Innovations: Dairy and Exotic Crossbreeds for Beef Production [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1974
Crossing of breeds traditionally has been viewed skeptically by cattle producers. Although there has been some crossbreeding between traditional beef breeds, little use of dairy-beef crosses in commercial beef herds has been made. Often such calves have been inferior in quality and have yielded a lower return than the standard beef breeds.Recently ...

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

, 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 ...

Gene expression of fatty acid binding protein genes and its relationship with fat deposition of Thai native crossbreed chickens

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020
Objective The objectives of this study were to investigate the relationship between the mRNA expression of adipocyte type fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) and heart type FABP (H-FABP) in Thai native chicken crossbreeds and evaluate the level of exotic
