Nutritional Responses in Wool Sulphur by Four Merino Genotypes Of
Sheep from 4 Merino flocks, different in annual clean fleece production when grazed together, were given several nutritional treatments to compare the relationships of wool sulphur with nutrient intake, and with wool growth and plasma cystine. The sheep were selected from a finewool (Fl), a strong wool (S), and 2 medium-Peppin (MP6 and MPlO) flocks. The nutritional treatments varied intakes of ...
متن کاملRetardation of wool growth in Merino sheep caused by bacteria.
A condition evidenced by retarded growth of wool with alteration of the yolk into a yellow, sticky, wax-like substance was investigated. The condition was associated with hyperaemia and cellular infiltration into the dermis in the affected areas. Three bacterial species, viz. Enterobacter aerogenes, E. agglomerans and Hafnia alvei, which could grow on the water-extractable component of wool-yol...
متن کاملGenetic Parameters in Merino Sheep GENETIC RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN CARCASS QUALITY AND WOOL PRODUCTION TRAITS IN AUSTRALIAN MERINO RAMS
The heritability of carcass quality traits and the genetic correlations between wool production and these carcass quality traits were estimated on 1216 Merino rams. The results showed that carcass quality traits are moderately heritable but pH appears to be lowly heritable. Yellowness and redness of L. dorsi had very low heritability estimate. Moderate negative genetic relationships were found ...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Association Study for Wool Production Traits in a Chinese Merino Sheep Population
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provide a powerful approach for identifying quantitative trait loci without prior knowledge of location or function. To identify loci associated with wool production traits, we performed a genome-wide association study on a total of 765 Chinese Merino sheep (JunKen type) genotyped with 50 K single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In the present study, five...
متن کاملMerino sheep: a further look at quantitative trait loci for wool production.
A quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis of wool traits from experimental half-sib data of Merino sheep is presented. A total of 617 animals distributed in 10 families were genotyped for 36 microsatellite markers on four ovine chromosomes OAR1, OAR3, OAR4 and OAR11. The markers covering OAR3 and OAR11 were densely spaced, at an average distance of 2.8 and 1.2 cM, respectively. Body weight and w...
