Nutritional and productive parameters of Holstein/Zebu cows fed diets containing cactus pear

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2019
Objective This study ascertained effects of cactus pear in association with different roughage in the diet of F1 Holstein/Zebu cows on intake, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen balance, ingestive behavior and performance.

Embodied Narrations: Video Narrative Inquiry for Meaning‐Making of Learning Contexts

International Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This text begins with the initial question of how we can narrate in a situated and meaningful way about the processes of teaching and learning, not to repeat what we imagine that we should say and already know, but to be truthful with respect to the issues that affect us and matter to us.

Forage cactus associated with different fiber sources for lactating Sindhi cows: intake, digestibility and microbial protein production

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2014
This experiment was carried to evaluate the effect of forage cactus with different fiber sources (elephant grass hay [EGH], corn straw [CS], hay of cassava shoots [HCS], fresh sugarcane bagasse [FSB], and hydrolyzed sugarcane bagasse [HSB]) on intake ...

Molecular identification and prevalence of tick-borne pathogens in zebu and taurine cattle in North Cameroon

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Public interest for tick-borne pathogens in cattle livestock is rising due to their veterinary and zoonotic importance. Consequently, correct identification of these potential pathogens is crucial to estimate the level of exposition, the risk and the ...

Genetic Relationships Between Residual Gain and Economically Important Traits in Nellore Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable beef production requires identifying animals with superior feed efficiency to reduce environmental impact and production costs. This study aimed to estimate heritability and genetic correlations between residual gain (RG) and growth, reproductive, carcass and feed efficiency traits in Nellore cattle.

Genetic Associations of Functional Longevity With Sexual Precocity and Growth Traits in Nellore Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Functional longevity (FL) is a complex trait that integrates many attributes directly contributing to the successful retention and productivity of a cow within the herd. Consequently, improving FL in beef cattle increases herd profitability. This study aimed to estimate the genetic associations between two alternative FL definitions and traits

Squamous metaplasia of the rete ovarii in a Zebu cow [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research, 2012
Stratified keratinizing squamous epithelium in the ovary has been associated with the diagnosis of ovarian teratoma in cows. Recently, the diagnosis of "epidermoid cyst" has been proposed. A case of squamous metaplasia of the rete ovarii in a Zebu cow is described in this report.A crossbreed Zebu cow had both ovaries enlarged with multiple cysts.

Genetic Evaluation for Functional Longevity in Nellore Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stayability (STAY) presents limitations in capturing genetic variability among animals with varying calving records up to 76 months of age. Furthermore, because STAY is measured late in life (typically at 6 years of age), it inherently prolongs generation intervals.
