Energy metabolism of pregnant zebu and crossbred zebu dairy cattle

PLOS ONE, 2021
The purpose of this study was to determine the energy partition of pregnant F1 Holstein x Gyr with average initial body weight (BW) of 515.6 kg and Gyr cows with average initial BW of 435.1 kg at 180, 210 and 240 days of gestation, obtained using respirometry. Twelve animals in two groups (six per genetic group) received a restricted diet equivalent to

Genomic Analysis of Taurine and Indicine Ancestry in the Montana Tropical Composite Population. [PDF]

J Anim Breed Genet
ABSTRACT The Montana Tropical cattle, a Taurine and Indicine composite, were developed in Brazil since 1994 and were based on crossing four biological types of cattle: zebu (mainly Nelore), tropical adapted taurine (mainly Senepol and Romosinuano), British taurine (mainly Angus) and continental taurine (as Charolais, Simental and Limousin).

Whole-genome resequencing reveals selection signatures associated with milk production traits in African Kenana dairy zebu cattle.

Genomics, 2020
Milk production and composition are the most economically important traits affecting profitability in dairy cattle. In this study, we aimed at detecting signatures of positive selection in Kenana, known as one of the high milk production African ...

Inbreeding depression in Zebu cattle traits. [PDF]

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, 2016
SummaryThe productivity of herds may be negatively affected by inbreeding depression, and it is important to know how intense is this effect on the livestock performance. We performed a comprehensive analysis involving five Zebu breeds reared in Brazil to estimate inbreeding depression in productive and reproductive traits.

Sub-fertility in crossbred bulls: deciphering testicular level transcriptomic alterations between zebu (Bos indicus) and crossbred (Bos taurus x Bos indicus) bulls

BMC Genomics, 2020
The incidence of poor semen quality and sub-fertility/infertility is higher in crossbred as compared to Zebu males. Several attempts have been made to understand the possible reasons for higher incidence of fertility problems in crossbred males, at sperm

High-Resolution Mass Spectrometer–Based Ultra-Deep Profile of Milk Whey Proteome in Indian Zebu (Sahiwal) Cattle

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2020
Milk serves as a mode of protection to neonate through transferring the host defense proteins from mother to offspring. It also guards the mammary gland against various types of infections. Along with the presence of six vital proteins, bovine milk (whey)

Ingestive behavior of Guzerat and Sindhi heifers under the effects of feed restriction=Comportamento ingestivo de novilhas Guzerá e Sindi sob efeito de restrição alimentar [PDF]

Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2012
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of feed restriction on the ingestive behavior of Guzerat and Sindhi heifers. A total of 36 heifers were used, 18 from each breed, randomly distributed in a completely randomized design, in a 2 x 3 factorial scheme.
