Induction of superovulation in South American camelids
Animal Reproduction Science, 2013The development of assisted reproductive technologies such as embryo transfer (ET), artificial insemination (AI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) in South American camelids is considerably behind that of other livestock species. Poor success of the embryo transfer technique has been related to a lack of an effective superstimulatory treatment, low ...

A review on reproduction in South American camelids
Animal Reproduction Science, 2000In this paper, aspects of reproductive physiology and endocrinology, as well as sexual behaviour in South American camelids are reviewed. Because of the many unique features of reproduction in these animals, the application of advanced breeding techniques that are routinely used in other domestic species has been slow and, in some cases, are not ...

Ophthalmology of South American Camelids
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2010In the past 10 years, information about South American camelid anatomy, physiology, medicine, and surgery has increased exponentially, including information about the eye. Although trauma-related diseases are the most common eye problems for which camelids are presented to veterinarians, there have recently been many anecdotal reports and published ...

Detection of antibodies to mycoplasmas in South American camelids
Research in Veterinary Science, 1991Indirect haemagglutination tests on sera from 757 South American camelids (alpacas, llamas and vicunas) carried out in the Andean region of Peru, revealed evidence of exposure mainly to Mycoplasma mycoides subspecies mycoides LC. The incidence of detectable antibodies to this mycoplasma in 554 alpacas was 5.0 per cent and in 141 llamas 15.6 per cent ...

Advanced Reproductive Technologies in South American Camelids
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1994The authors chose to discuss only a small portion of the potential advanced reproductive technologic procedures that hold promise in fertility management of llamas. The future of this area is very bright; one's lack of imagination, simple prejudice, or careless planning are the only factors that will limit progress.

Six microsatellite markers for South American camelids
Animal Genetics, 1999Description: A small insert genomic library was prepared withllama (Lama glama) DNA cloned into pJCP1 vector, based on procedures described by Ostrander et al. 1. Construction of library and screening of clones for CA/TG repeats was carried out by Research Genetics (Huntsville, AL).

In vitro production of embryos in South American camelids
Animal Reproduction Science, 2013Studies in reproductive biotechnology techniques have been minimal in South American camelids (SAC). Complex reproductive characteristics of these species contribute to slow progress. Nevertheless, some techniques, such as in vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection and nuclear transfer have been applied and have produced advances in ...

Blood typing South American camelids.
The Journal of heredity, 1985Preliminary blood typing tests were made on New World camelids, guanacos, llamas, and two hybrids. Erythrocyte samples were tested against a battery of cattle blood typing reagents. Three different reagents were prepared from rabbit anti-erythrocyte sera. Transferrin variation and lectin polymorphism also were observed.

Embryo transfer in domestic South American camelids
Animal Reproduction Science, 2013Intraspecific and interspecific embryo transfer in domestic South American camelids is developing into a well-established technique. Reports reveal many benefits of using reproductive biotechnologies to allow rapid propagation of alpacas and llamas of high genetic merit (e.g., high fiber quality, preserve color variation).

Coccidiosis in South American Camelids
2019The South American camelids (SACs) consist of four species – llamas, alpacas, guanacos, and vicunas; their generic nomenclature is controversial. This chapter reviews coccidiosis in SACs in detail listing complete bibliography up to 2018, history, taxonomy, life cycles, and diagnosis.
