Mitochondrial Sequence Variation, Haplotype Diversity, and Relationships Among Dromedary Camel-Types
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Dromedary camels are outstanding livestock that developed efficient abilities to tolerate desert conditions. Many dromedary camel-types (i.e., named populations) exist but lack defined specific breed standards, registries, and breeders’ governing ...

Characterization of Leptin (LEP) gene in Indian dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius)
Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2022 Information on the camel leptin gene when compared to other domestic livestock species is very limited. Hence, the present study was undertaken to characterize the leptin gene of the Indian dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius).

Recent Advances in Dromedary Camels and Their Products [PDF]
Animals, 2022 Dromedary camels or, more specifically, one-humped camels (Camelus dromedarius), are described as having a high productive potential, and for centuries, they have been used by people (namely nomads) in arid and hot regions as multipurpose animals for physical labor, transport, the production of milk, meat, wool, hair, and skin, and for racing and ...

Fibrous osteodystrophy in a dromedary camel
Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2020 A 6-y-old female dromedary camel ( Camelus dromedarius L.) was presented for assessment of firm, bilateral swellings rostral and ventral to the eyes. Serum biochemistry revealed hyperglycemia (28.5 mmol/L), hypocalcemia (1.27 mmol/L), hyperphosphatemia (3.39 mmol/L), hypoproteinemia (total protein 50 g/L), and hypoalbuminemia (20 g/L).

MERS Coronaviruses in Dromedary Camels, Egypt [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014 We identified the near-full-genome sequence (29,908 nt, >99%) of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) from a nasal swab specimen from a dromedary camel in Egypt. We found that viruses genetically very similar to human MERS-CoV are infecting dromedaries beyond the Arabian Peninsula, where human MERS-CoV infections have not yet been ...

First cloned Bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) calf produced by interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer: A step towards preserving the critically endangered wild Bactrian camels. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Studies were conducted to explore the possibility of employing dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius) oocytes as recipient cytoplasts for the development of interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) embryos using skin fibroblast cells of an adult

Sequence analysis of the Toll-like receptor 2 gene of old world camels
Journal of Advanced Research, 2014 The Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) gene of old world camels (Camelus dromedarius and Camelus bactrianus) was cloned and sequenced. The TLR2 gene of the dromedary camel had the highest nucleotide and amino acid identity with pig, i.e., 66.8% and 59.6 ...
