Melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) gene has been known as a candidate gene for growth traits in livestock. This research was aimed to identify the polymorphism of MC4R gene and its association with growth traits in Sumba Ongole (SO) cattle. The growth traits data consist of body weight and body size. Eighty four blood samples were collected and used for DNA isolation. The...

Testis is the male reproductive organ that performs both endocrine and exocrine functions. This study aimed to determine distribution of carbohydrates in testis sumba ongole cattle.

Based evaluated phytochemical, The aim of this study was to identify eosinophil image Sumba Onggle Cattle fed with moringa. research started from March September 2017. carried out in Integrated Dry Land Laboratory, Nusa Cendana Un...

Sumba Ongole (SO) cattle are from India which were imported to Indonesia during the Dutch colonial era and well adapted on Island, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. known for high meat production. This research was conducted identify one point mutation of g.415C/A (F94L marker) in myostatin (MSTN) gene (exon 1) using PCR-RFLP method with TaqI restriction enzyme (T*CGA). DNA samples SO bulls cows (...

Realizing the significant association of A1 and A2 β-casein (CSN2) polymorphism with health promoting properties and milk performance traits, the present investigation was undertaken to explore A1/A2 polymorphism in Indian zebu breed, Ongole (Bos indicus) and crossbred, Frieswal (HF × Sahiwal) cattle using allele-specific (AS)-PCR. Thirty eight Ongole cow, 124 Frieswal heifers and 48 Frieswal b...
