Genomic selection has been widely implemented in many livestock breeding programs, but it remains incipient buffalo. Therefore, this study aimed to (1) estimate variance components incorporating genomic information Murrah buffalo; (2) evaluate the performance of prediction for milk-related traits using single- and multitrait random regression models (RRM) single-step best linear unbiased approa...

The artifi cial insemination (AI) technique plays an important role in improvement of conception rate, prevention of sexually transmitted diseases and transmission of genetic material to the next generation. The breeding soundness evaluation (BSE) plays an important role in selection of male buffalo for the said purposes. This evaluation is an effective, inexpensive and easy method for selectio...

The study reported aimed to assess the effect of different rearing systems on behavioural responses novel stimuli in Murrah buffalo calves. Calves experiment were grouped three treatments accordance with differed maternal interaction: dam-reared through fenceline (FMC; n = 8), restricted contact (RMC; 8); no (NMC; 8). FMC calves had permanent access their mothers for first 5 days birth and ther...
