Short tandem repeat (STR) based genetic diversity and relationship of indigenous Niger cattle [PDF]

Archives Animal Breeding, 2017
The diversity of cattle in Niger is predominantly represented by three indigenous breeds: Zebu Arabe, Zebu Bororo and Kuri. This study aimed at characterizing the genetic diversity and relationship of Niger cattle breeds using short tandem repeat (STR)

Evaluation of Adaptive, Productive and Reproductive Performance of Boran Dairy Breed in the Lowland Agro‐Ecology of Kaffa Zone, South‐Western Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Boran dairy cattle demonstrated acceptable productive, reproductive and adaptive performance under lowland conditions of south‐western Ethiopia. Significant effects of parity and lactation stage were observed on milk yield and blood parameters, while physiological values remained within normal ranges, confirming good adaptation and potential for ...

Genetic variability of 10 microsatellite markers in the characterization of Brazilian Nellore cattle (Bos indicus)

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2006
We assessed the polymorphism of 10 microsatellites in Brazilian Nellore cattle (Bos indicus) using a commercial multiplex system. Allele frequencies, polymorphism information content, heterozygosity and exclusion probability were calculated.

From Yield to Flavor: The Role of Lipid Coatings in Beef Aging

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Lipid‐coated aging has been proposed as an alternative to enhance flavor, particularly using butter as a coating material (butter‐aged beef). Thus, this study compared the wet‐aged and beef‐aged with different lipid‐based coatings: milk butter (butter‐aged), cocoa butter (cocoa‐aged), pork lard (lard‐aged), and beef tallow (tallow‐aged), all ...

Genetic diversity, population structure, and correlations between locally adapted zebu and taurine breeds in Brazil using SNP markers

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2017
Genetic diversity is one of the most important issues in studies on conservation of cattle breeds and endangered species. The objective of this study was to estimate the levels of genetic differentiation between locally adapted taurine (Bos taurus taurus)
