Quantitative variation of melanins in llama (Lama glama L.) [PDF]
Abstract The amount of melanin pigments was investigated in 80 Argentinean llama, representative of seven phenotypes and four different fleece colours, by means of spectrophotometric assays: SpEM (spectrophotometric eumelanin), SpPM (spectrophotometric pheomelanin), SpASM (spectrophotometric alkali soluble melanin), and SpTM (spectrophotometric total

TYR Gene in Llamas: Polymorphisms and Expression Study in Different Color Phenotypes
Tyrosinase, encoded by TYR gene, is an enzyme that plays a major role in mammalian pigmentation. It catalyzes the oxidation of L-dihydroxy-phenylalanine (DOPA) to DOPA quinone, a precursor of both types of melanin: eumelanin and pheomelanin.

Effect of seminal plasma on the sperm motility patterns and their relationship to the cryopreservation of llama semen [PDF]
La pregunta que nos hacemos todos los que trabajamos en camélidos sudamericanos (CSA) es “¿Porqué si se insemina con la misma cantidad de espermatozoides motiles/vivos no se preña con semen criopreservado y si con el semen fresco? ”.

Changes in Llama (Lama glama) Milk Composition During Lactation [PDF]
Milk samples were collected weekly from 10 llamas during the first 27 wk after parturition under controlled stable conditions. Mean values for the concentrations of the major milk components across the lactation period were 4.70% fat, 4.23% protein, 5.93% lactose, 15.61% dry matter, and 22.62 mg/dL of milk urea N.
