Electrocardiographic study of 50 healthy Markhoz goats ranging from less than 1 to more than 3 years inage was carried out. The heart rate varied from 99 to 123 beats/min with a mean of 110 beats/min. There wasa significant difference between the heart rate of goats in 3 age groups (PT waves and QT interval in base apex lead, QRS wave in lead I, P-R and PQ interval in aVF lead were higherand du...

one hundred female markhoz goats (42±5 kg) were used to investigate the ‘male effect’ on estrous synchronization and reproductive characteristics of female goat during the breeding season. this was carried out in three separate experiments. in the first experiment, forty female goats were used in 4 groups with different distance from the male goats (i.e. source of pheromone secretion); a1 (1 me...

an experiment conducted to evaluate the level of molybdenum, sulphur and iron ‎supplement on the copper status and clinical deficiency in iranian sheep and goat. eight of one ‎year -old sanjabi sheep and markhoz goats housed in individual crates in animal house of razi ‎university. animals fed with the same basal diet which was supplemented with different levels of ‎minerals of mo, s and fe dur...

Iran is one of the most important mohair-producing countries in the world. Markhoz goat is the only breed producing mohair in Iran that is showing endangerment trend in its native breeding region. The aim of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of Markhoz goat and its color types using ISSR markers. Four primers were designed and two of them were selected based on their number of ba...

BACKGROUND: Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) is known as a cardiac biomarker in determining the myocardial damage of diseases which affect the heart muscle. OBJECTIVES: This study aims to evaluate the serum cTnI concentration in Markhoz Breed goats suffering selenium (Se) deficiency and its correlation with electrocardiographic parameters, and activity of creatine kinase (CK) and aspartate aminotransf...

the follicle arrangement and secondary to primary follicle ratio (s/p) were studied in the ‎skin of nine male and nine female markhoz goats breed from one week to 16 weeks of age. the ‎skin samples were taken from mid-side area of each animal in nine stages every other week. the ‎follicles were arranged in groups, predominantly including three primary and several ‎secondary follicles. each prim...
