Study on the Occurrence of the Rumen Ciliates Eudiplodinium Gigantium and Eudiplodinium Bubalus in Indian Cattle (bos Indicus)
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In a survey of rumen contents from 814 adult Indian cattle (Bos indicus) Eudiplodinium giganium and Eudiplodinium bubalus was observed. The body dimensions and variations of characters recorded from the specimens taken (n=50) at random from different slides and compared to those previously reported for other animal hosts living in different geographical locations. This study reports for the first time in India the presence of Eudiplodinium giganium and Eudiplodinium bubalus in Indian cattle.

An investigation has been made to study the morphology of rumen ciliate protozoa from the subfamily Diplodiniinae. A total 814 rumen fluid samples of adult Indian cattle Bos indicus were collected. The present paper deals with the occurrence of Enoploplastron triloricatum. The body dimensions and variations of characters recorded from the specimen taken at random (n=50) from different slides an...

Samples of rumen contents were obtained from 10 African (Cape) buffalo living in the vicinity of the Orpen Gate entrance into Kruger National Park in South Africa. Total number of ciliate protozoa per animal ranged from 3.15 to 23.25 x 103. Forty three different species and forms were observed, of which 35 are a new host record. The total number of species and forms per animal varied...

BACKGROUND Indian cattle (Bos indicus) and riverine buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) give a poor yield of milk but it has a high fat and protein percentage compared to taurine cattle. The identification of QTLs (Quantitative Trait Loci) on BTA14 and BTA6 and its subsequent fine mapping has led to identification of two non conservative mutations affecting milk production and composition. Our objective ...

In situ hybridization of rumen ciliate protozoa with 165 ribosomal RNA fluorescent oligonucleotide probes specific for Archaea and Bacteria provided semi-quantitative indication of the location, type and extent of prokaryotic colonization of various protozoal species. The isotrichid holotrich ciliates generally carried a smaller load of intracellular microorganisms than did the entodiniomorphid...

Intestinal contents were collected from eight impala at three different localities during the winter hunting season (2005-2009), as well as from another 24 animals from a one-year trial at a game farm called Ditholo (2003-2004). Gas production, protozoa counts and several other physiological parameters were measured from both rumen and caecum or colon contents. Only higher ophryoscolecid an...
