The agouti signaling protein (ASIP) gene has a crucial role in pigmentation by encoding that binds the melanocortin 1 receptor and stimulates synthesis of pheomelanin rather than eumelanin. Several studies have suggested an increased copy number ASIP might explain white certain goat breeds, as previously demonstrated sheep. In current work, we identified segregation CNV Murciano-Granadina (blac...

The study was conducted to investigate the fatty acid profile of intramuscular fat in longissimus lumborum (LL) of three genotypic groups: Qazvinian native (Q, n=10), crossbred Qazvinian native × Saanen breed (QS, n=10) and backcrossed Qazvinian native × Saanen breed (QSS, n=9) male kids.All of kids were weaned at 75-days-old and then fed with a diet consisted of concentrate (70%) and alfalfa h...

The aim of this study was to analyze the economic viability of producing dairy goat kids fed liquid diets in alternative of goat milk and slaughtered at two different ages. Forty-eight male newborn Saanen and Alpine kids were selected and allocated to four groups using a completely randomized factorial design: goat milk (GM), cow milk (CM), commercial milk replacer (CMR) and fermented cow colos...
