Recent advances in genomics resources and tools are facilitating quantitative trait locus mapping. We developed a crossbreed pedigree for mapping quantitative trait loci for hip dysplasia in dogs by crossing dysplastic Labrador Retrievers and normal Greyhounds. We show that one advantage to using a crossbreed pedigree is the increased marker informativeness in the backcross/F2 population relati...

The objective of this study was to compare milk protein, amino acid and fatty acid content and composition among two breeds of river buffalo (Murrah and Nili-Ravi), and their hybrid F1 and F2 (crossbreeding with local swamp buffalo). The protein and fat content in milk from crossbreed F1 and F2 were significant higher than that of river buffalo, but the milk yield was still lower than Nili-Ravi...

This study was conducted on the crossbreed cows (Sahiwal x Friesian) n=323 maintained at the Multan Dairy Farm Vehari Road Multan. The study aims to assess the response of treatment of crossbreed cows identified to possess luteal cyst using the prostaglandin analogue. The animals which did not show estrus up to 80-100 days, post partum were considered as cystic disorder. These animals were init...

Network Intrusion Detection System (IDS), as the main security defending technique, is second guard for a network after firewall. Data mining technology is applied to the network intrusion detection, and Precision of the detection will be improved by the superiority of data mining. For IDS many machine learning approaches are ad-acute but they all work efficiently on basis of the training data ...

Farm location is an important factor in dairy farms, as it is closely associated with temperature and humidity that are crucial factors of influencing the physiological conditions and productivity of cows especially during the lactation period. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of farm location on the physiological conditions and productivity of cows. The study was involved ...

This study aimed at evaluating the effects of trailer design on stress responses and meat quality traits of 3 different pig crosses: 50% Pietrain breeding with halothane (HAL)(Nn) (50Nn); 50% Pietrain breeding with HAL(NN) (50NN); and 25% Pietrain breeding with HAL(NN) genotype (25NN). Over a 6-wk period, pigs (120 pigs/crossbreed) were transported for 7 h in either a pot-belly (PB) or flat-dec...

Pig breeding companies keep relatively small populations of pure sire and dam lines that are selected to improve the performance of crossbred animals. This design of the pig breeding industry presents challenges to the implementation of genomic selection, which requires large data sets to obtain highly accurate genomic breeding values. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of d...

This study examines the prolactin hormone profile in Etaawa, Sapera and Saanen lactating goats, adult females, pregnant does, yearlings. used a total of 80 randomly selected goats with details 26 Ettawa Crossbreed (eight lactating, six pregnant, heifers), 32 twelve yearlings) 22 (five four yearling). All were declared clinically healthy. Blood sampling was performed through jugular vein each an...

This case report describes the treatment of uterine torsion in Simmental crossbreed cattle. The dam was five years old, twice parity, nine months and ten days pregnancy. Based on anamnesis, it is known that cows show signs restlessness, straining, more robust by time. However, there no visible edema vulva, ruptured membranes, legs head fetus coming out dam's vulva. Tretment carried traditional ...

Tick-borne pathogens (TBP) are responsible for significant economic losses to cattle production, globally. This is particularly true in countries like India where TBP constrain rearing of high yielding Bos taurus, as they show susceptibility to acute tick borne disease (TBD), most notably tropical theileriosis caused by Theileria annulata. This has led to a programme of cross breeding Bos tauru...
