A Microscopic Study of lingual Papillae in Iranian Buffalo (Bubalus bubalus)

A STUDY OF PROTEASE INHIBITOR GENE POLYMORPHISM BUFFALO (Bubalus bubalis)

Protease inhibitor (PI) genes belong to the superfamily of serine protease inhibitors that includes C1 esterase, antithrombin, and α1antichymotrypsin, among others. The primary role of PI is to protect tissues against proteolytic digestion by neutrophil elastase. PI is also found to be associated with increased milk and fat yields, increased productive life and decreased somatic cell score. The...

Storage of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) semen.

Characteristics of buffalo semen, diluents used for liquid storage, aspects involved in freezing and thawing of semen are reviewed, and fertility results after artificial insemination (AI) with frozen-thawed semen are given.

Congenital Malformations in River Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis)

The world buffalo population is about 168 million, and it is still growing, in India, China, Brazil, and Italy. In these countries, buffalo genetic breeding programs have been performed for many decades. The occurrence of congenital malformations has caused a slowing of the genetic progress and economic loss for the breeders, due to the death of animals, or damage to their reproductive ability ...

Fatal intestinal coccidiosis in a three week old buffalo calf (Bubalus bubalus).

The water buffalo (Bubalus bubalus) is important to the economy of several countries, especially in Asia and Brazil. Little is known of the impact of coccidiosis in buffaloes. Cattle and buffaloes are considered to have common species of Eimeria but critical cross transmissions have not been made because it is difficult to raise these hosts coccidian free. Clinical coccidiosis was confirmed pos...
