In this study, the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of Schizothorax yunnanensis paoshanensis is determined for the first time. The complete mtDNA genome sequence of S. yunnanensis paoshanensis is 16,585 bp in length. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and a putative control region (D-loop region). The gene order of S. yunnanensis paoshanensis ...

the objective of this study was to determine the effects of feeding different levels of monensin on feed intake, milk production and composition, and milk fattyacid profile in lactating holstein cows. four multiparous cows averaging 517 ± 47 (sd) kg in body weight and 101 ± 19.8 (sd) days in milk were housed individually in tie-stalls. the study was conducted as a 4 × 4 latin square design for ...

purpose: military personnel are expected to maintain the highest possible level of physical   fitness to do their duties. several factors including body composition and body mass index   affect the level of their physical preparedness. the current study was designed to investigate   the effect of body composition and body mass index in the level of physical preparedness of   iranian military pe...

1. Sixteen first-calf Friesian heifers were used in a continous treatment design experiment. For 2 weeks after calving they were given a 750 g concentrate, 250 g hay/kg ration with 169 g crude protein (nitrogen X 6.25; CP)/kg dry matter (DM). They were then divided into two groups of eight and given a high-protein (223 g CP/kg DM) or low-protein (107 g CP/kg DM) ration at the rate of 10.8 kg co...

introduction: during ramadan, adult muslims abstain from drinking and eating from sunrise to sunset. this religious practice influences individuals’ lifestyle factors such as eating behavior, meal schedule, and sleep pattern. these changes may affect endocrine and neuroendocrine circadian patterns, and consequently, cardiovascular indices. this study was performed to investigate the effects of ...

The study was carried out on 120 crossbred Holstein × Shahiwal dairy cows for a period of 150 days to quantify the influence of dietary energy and protein intake on yield and composition of milk. Total 12 dairy farms having similar housing systems and holding at least 20 dairy cows in between mid to late lactation were selected for study purposes. The farms were located in the peri-urban and ur...
