Comparative proteomics reveals genetic mechanisms of body weight in Hu sheep and Dorper sheep.

Journal of Proteomics, 2022
Body weight (BW) is a critical economic trait for meat production in sheep, and it is a complex trait affected by numerous elements. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic mechanisms of sheep BW by a label-free proteomics approach.

Productive Performance of Dorper Sheep

Small Ruminant Research, 2000
The Dorper is a hardy South African composite breed, derived from a cross between the Black-headed Persian and the Dorset Horn. Dorpers are regarded as early-maturing, and ewes lambed at an age of 1 year in one study. Age at first lambing was higher in other literature sources cited.

Status of Dorper Sheep as Hosts of Ectoparasites

Small Ruminant Research, 2000
Seventeen ixodid tick species or subspecies have been collected from Dorper sheep in South Africa. The diseases transmitted or the conditions caused by these ticks in sheep are discussed. Although Dorper sheep may be infested with the scab mite, Psoroptes ovis, this does not seem to cause production losses.

A Comparative Assessment of Dorper Sheep in Different Production Environments and Systems

Small Ruminant Research, 2000
Performance of Dorper sheep was compared to other breeds in pure and cross-breeding evaluations under different production systems. The number of ewes lambed per ewe joint (E(L)/E(J)) varied for the Dorper from 0.68 to 0.91 (average 0.81) and for other breeds and crosses from 0.65 to 0.91 (average 0.82). Average litter size (L(B)/lambing) varied from 1.
