Summary A total of 57 Indian Sahiwal ( Bos indicus ) cattle and 53 Murrah 19 Nili‐Ravi Bubalus bubalis buffalo were screened using PCR/RFLP to detect the following alleles at growth hormone (GH) prolactin (PRL) loci: leucine/valine (L/V) for GH/ AluI (amino acid 127), (+/+) MspI (intron III), A/B PRL/ RsaI 103). Among cattle, gene frequencies 0.96/0.04 (GH/ ), 0.86/0.14 0.49/0.51 (PRL/ ). In buffalo, animals both breeds homozygous GH loci (LL, ++). Egyptian 11 samples also monomorphic,...

Contents The variation in the kidding size of Black Bengal and Sirohi breed goats makes them an interesting genetic material to study underlying mechanism prolificacy. Accordingly, we studied comparative ovarian morphometry including disparity numbers antral follicles different sizes between these two breeds. Further, evaluated differential expression important candidate genes (viz., BMP 15, GDF 9 BMPR 1 B ) known influence ovulation rates ovaries (n = 20) goat were lighter (p < 0.01)...

Abstract The present study aimed to determine carcass characteristics, meat quality, nutrient profiles, and sensory characteristics of Mithun meat. Sixteen were selected divided into four groups, MM‐4 (male; n = 4; <4 years age), MM‐47 4–7 MF‐4 (female; MF‐47 age). Carcass showed that adult males (MM‐47) have significantly higher ( P < 0.05) live weight, meat‐to‐bone ratio. Fat (%) was 0.05), deboned lower in MF‐47, while marginal differences observed bone (%), dressing percentage,...

Abstract We screened 57 Sahiwal cattle (Bos indicus) and 53 Murrah, 19 Nili‐Ravi 11 Egyptian buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) to detect the polymorphisms at kappa‐casein (CSN3) gene using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). CSN3 A B alleles were identified by PCR‐RFLP restriction enzymes that underlying nucleotide changes codon 136 (TaqI) 148 (HindIII or HinfI) in cattle. The frequency of allele was estimated as 0.16 with no homozygous BB animal. Using same set primers used cattle, a part exon IV...

Mithun (Bos frontalis), also called gayal, is an endangered bovine species, under the tribe bovini with 2n = 58 XX chromosome complements and reared tropical rain forests region of India, China, Myanmar, Bhutan Bangladesh. However, origin this species still disputed information on its genomic architecture scanty so far. We trust that availability whole genome sequence data assembly will greatly solve problem help to generate many including phylogenetic status mithun. Recently, first mithun...

The current study aimed at genomic characterization and improved understanding of genetic diversity two Indian mithun populations (both farm, 48 animals field, 24 animals) using genome wide genotype data generated with Illumina BovineHD BeadChip. Eight additional taurine cattle (Holstein NDama), indicine (Gir) other evolutionarily closely related species (Bali cattle, Yak, Bison, Gaur wild buffalo) were also included in this analysis (N = 137) for comparative purposes. Our results show that...

Mycobacterium fortuitum causes 'mycobacteriosis' in wide range of hosts although the mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here we demonstrate role calcium (Ca+2)-signalling cascade on M. fortuitum-induced apoptosis headkidney macrophages (HKM) Clarias sp. could trigger intracellular-Ca+2 influx leading to activation calmodulin (CaM), protein kinase C alpha (PKCα) and Calmodulin II gamma (CaMKIIg). Gene silencing inhibitor studies established CaM pathogenesis. We noted that CaMKIIg is regulated...
