Indigenous cattle breeds play a crucial role in most agricultural systems, providing sustainable livelihoods, cultural value, and genetic diversity, well-suited to semi-arid environments. The study aimed assess the population structure risk status of three indigenous beef breeds, Tuli, Mashona, Nkone, focusing on effective size (Ne), number females (L), additional factors. Pedigree records for 37,081 12,935 9,489 Nkone were analyzed using online POPREP software. completeness over six...

Synthetic biology (SynBio) is an interdisciplinary field that has developed rapidly in the last two decades. It involves design and construction of new biological systems processes from standardized components, networks synthetic pathways. The goal Synbio to create logical forms cellular control. Biological their parts can be redesigned carry out completely functions. SynBio poised greatly impact human health, environment, biofuels chemical production with huge economic benefits. presents...
Gene drives are being used to enhance a DNA sequence's likelihood of passing between generations via sexual reproduction. can be deployed manipulate natural populations. They suppress populations by reducing the number individuals in population or modify There more than 3000 mosquito species world, some which vectors diseases. Malaria is typical disease whose mosquitoes. It affects mostly tropical countries. kills many people annually, whom children. Interventions currently use, such as...
Crossbreeding is a well-established practice in livestock production aimed at improving reproductive and productive traits. This study evaluated the effects of crossbreeding on rabbits, focusing comparisons between purebred Flemish Giant (n = 10), New Zealand White 23), their crossbred offspring 27). Various parameters, including litter size, body weight, growth rate, mortality, were assessed. The results demonstrated that rabbits presented 15% faster rate than along with lowest mortality...
In order to understand the mechanism of desiccation tolerance in Xerophyta schlechteri, we carried out an silico study identify hub proteins and functional modules nuclear proteome leaves. Protein-protein interaction networks were constructed analyzed from data obtained Abdalla Rafudeen. We Cytoscape using GeneMania software them a Network Analyzer. Functional enrichment analysis key respective was done network analysis, GO (Gene Ontology) terms summarized REViGO. Also, community...
This study aimed to characterize Matabele goats based on their qualitative and quantitative traits, facilitate genetic improvement conservation. Data were collected from 120 over 12 months, comprising 20 males 100 females using a stratified random sampling approach. Body weight various body measurements recorded. Five growth curve estimation models employed describe the pattern of goats. Descriptive statistics computed for both traits. T-tests conducted assess impact sex morphometric in...
