Buffalo-adapted Theileria parva causes Corridor disease in cattle. Strict control measures therefore apply to the movement of buffalo in South Africa and include mandatory testing of buffalo for the presence of T. parva. The official test is a real-time hybridization PCR assay that amplifies the V4 hypervariable region of the 18S rRNA gene of T. parva, T. sp. (buffalo) and T. sp. (bougasvlei). ...

stearoyl-coa desaturase (scd) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids (mufa). a number of studies support the hypothesis that scd gene regulation and polymorphism may affect fatty acid composition and fat quality in meat and milk. single nucleotide polymorphisms in the coding region of the bovine stearoyl-coa desaturase gene have been predicted to result in ...

In order to determine the incidence of buffaloes on enteric CH4 emissions, information about animal production and farm management was analyzed and the CH4 emission factor estimated using the IPCC Tier 2 model. CH4 emission factor for the category of buffalo cattle and buffalo bulls was estimated for the period 2000-2007, in Italy, Europe and worldwide. During 2007, the CH4 emission factor for ...

there are morphological and reproductive physiological differences between swamp buffalo (bubaluscarabanensis) and river buffalo (bubalus bubalis). the development of fetus weight and fetus biometry wasreported in river buffalo and other animals but not in swamp buffalo. the aim of this study was to describethe inherent variability in fetus related measurements during swamp buffalo pregnancy. t...

Interspecific hybrid embryos are useful models for the study of maternal-fetal interactions, transmission pattern of species-specific markers and parental contributions to growth and developmental potential of pre-attachment embryos. In an attempt to investigate the possibility of producing hybrid embryos of domestic cattle (Bos taurus) and water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), cattle oocytes were e...

Three groups of young buffalo in captivity were infected by exposing them to similar buffalo in the acute stages of infection induced by needle inoculation with SAT 1 or 2 viruses. Clear foot lesions developed in most of the buffalo from which the relevant virus types were re-isolated. During the first week following infection virus was found in blood, nasal secretions, saliva, preputial secret...
