Unveiling the Pre‐Weaning Growth Performance and Some Reproductive Characteristics of Akkaraman and Central Anatolian Merino Sheep

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2025.
This study evaluates growth and reproductive traits in Akkaraman (AKK) and Central Anatolian Merino (CAM) sheep in Türkiye. AKK lambs showed higher birth weights but lower weaning weights and growth rates compared to CAM lambs. Significant non‐genetic factors, such as sex, birth type and dam age, influenced these traits.

Integration analysis of transcriptome and proteome of Chinese Merino sheep (Ovis aries) embryonic skeletal muscle

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 129-142, February 2025.
This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of sheep late fetal skeletal muscle development from proliferation to hypertrophy. We performed the comprehensive analysis of transcriptome and proteome of Chinese Merino sheep at embryonic ages Day85 (D85N), Day105 (D105N) and Day135 (D135N) by the tandem mass tags (TMT) and RNA‐seq methods. We found

Reproductive parameters of Dorper ewes: Implications for an accelerated lambing system in South Texas

, 2020
There has been considerable change in the U.S sheep industry since the introduction of hair sheep, most notably, the Dorper breed of sheep. A decline in wool profitability has led to a significant expansion of Dorper sheep throughout the US with the ...

History and genetic diversity of African sheep: Contrasting phenotypic and genomic diversity

Animal Genetics, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Domesticated sheep have adapted to contrasting and extreme environments and continue to play important roles in local community‐based economies throughout Africa. Here we review the Neolithic migrations of thin‐tailed sheep and the later introductions of fat‐tailed sheep into eastern Africa.

Associations between worm egg count and production in Dorper sheep

, 2008
With changes to the Australian sheep industry, breeds that have a meat emphasis are becoming increasingly adopted by farmers. One such breed is the Dorper sheep, which was used in this study to investigate the relationship between worm egg count and ...

Genetic diversity of United States Rambouillet, Katahdin and Dorper sheep. [PDF]

Genet Sel Evol
Abstract Background Managing genetic diversity is critically important for maintaining species fitness. Excessive homozygosity caused by the loss of genetic diversity can have detrimental effects on the reproduction and production performance of a breed.

Allometric Growth of Non‐Carcass Components, Carcass Cuts and Hind Limb Tissues in Kivircik Lambs Finished Under Concentrate‐ and Pasture‐Based Systems

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
The mean of carcass components increased linearly with slaughter weight. Development of carcass cuts was late maturing in concentrate‐based system. Allometric growth of muscle and bone in pasture‐based system was extremely slow. Allometric growth of KKCF, subcutaneous fat and total fat was rapid.

Performance Evaluation of Different Blood Levels of Crossbred Dorper Sheep and Farmers’ Perception Toward Crossbred Dorper Sheep in Central South Zone, Southern Ethiopia

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study evaluates the growth performance of Dorper × indigenous crossbred sheep under semi‐intensive management system and assesses farmers’ perceptions toward these crossbred lambs in southern Ethiopia. Performance data, namely, birth weight (BWT), weaning weight (WWT), and average daily weight gain from birth to weaning (ADG0‐3), were collected ...
