Effects of oral iron supplementation on haematocrit, live weight gain and health in neonatal dairy calves
Forty neonate calves were used in this study. The animals were divided into two treatment (n = 20) andcontrol (n = 20) groups. In the treatment group, oral iron as ferrous sulphate was supplemented to each calf atthe dose of 150 mg/day for 28 days, from the birthday. Blood sampling was taken from jugular veinimmediately after birth and on days 7, 14, 21 and 28 after birth. Significant differenc...
متن کاملEffects of Probiotic and Chromium-Methionine on Thyroid Hormones, Total Protein, Zinc, and Weight Gain in Dairy Holstein Calves During the Weaning Period
BACKGROUND: Many additives have been recommended to calf feed but the effects of each supplement have been under investigation especially during weaning stress. OBJECTIVES: The effects of dietary supplementation of probiotic (Protexin) and chromium-methionine che- late (Cr-Met) on triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), total protein, albumin, zinc, and gr...
متن کاملGenome-wide association study for birth, weaning and yearling weight in Colombian Brahman cattle
Genotypic and phenotypic data of 1,562 animals were analyzed to find genomic regions that potentially influence the birth weight (BW), weaning weight at seven months of age (WW) and yearling weight (YW) of Colombian Brahman cattle, with genotyping conducted using Illumina Bead chip array with 74,669 SNPs. A Single Step Genomic BLUP (ssGBLP), approach was used to estimate the proportion of varia...
متن کاملA Genome Wide Association Scan of Bovine Tuberculosis Susceptibility in Holstein-Friesian Dairy Cattle
BACKGROUND Bovine tuberculosis is a significant veterinary and financial problem in many parts of the world. Although many factors influence infection and progression of the disease, there is a host genetic component and dissection of this may enlighten on the wider biology of host response to tuberculosis. However, a binary phenotype of presence/absence of infection presents a noisy signal for...
متن کاملUnveiling the genetic loci for a panicle developmental trait using genome-wide association study in rice
Panicle size has a high correlation with grain yield in rice. There is a bottleneck to identify the additional quantitative trait loci (QTL) for panicle size due to the conventional traits used for QTL mapping. To identify more genetic loci for panicle size, a panicle developmental trait (LNTB, the length from panicle neck-knot to the first primary branch in the rachis) related to panicle size ...
