Soybean (Glycine max L.) is a globally important industrial legume crop that provides several dietary components but faces growth challenges under various stresses, cause production and economic losses. Isoflavone reductase (IFR) key gene involved in isoflavonoid biosynthesis response to plant stresses. However, IFR genes remain unexplored the soybean genome. In this study, 37 were identified comprehensively characterized for first time All GmIFR proteins contained NmrA conserved domains...
Ticks and tick-borne infections pose major economic threats to the livestock industry throughout world. The present study reports point prevalence of ticks in free range population plain hilly areas Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (Mansehra, Haripur, Shangala, Kohistan), Gilgit Baltistan (Diamer, Gilgit, Astor) along Karakoram highway. Through convenient snowball sampling techniques, a total 813 animals, consisting 232 sheep, 163 cattle, 365 goats 53 buffaloes were screened for their tick burden. During...

E ctoparasites (Insecta and Arachnida) are a common risk to the livestock economy by infecting about 20-80% population around world.Ectoparasites depend on host for shelter, food other fundamentals their survival mainly present skin outgrowth of (Rechav Nutall, 2000).Ectopara-
This study describes the epidemiology, economic significance of small ruminant fasciolosis in animals slaughtered abattoirs Sargodha district, Punjab, Pakistan between January and June 2012. In vivo fasciolicidal efficacy commercially available compounds was examined using a randomised complete block design. Microscopically screened faecal samples revealed 40.51% positive for fasciolosis. The prevalent species included Fasciola hepatica (35.64%) gigantica (8.21%). Mixed infections were noted...
This study investigated the prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) parasites in ruminants slaughtered at abattoir district Narowal, Punjab, Pakistan. The overall parasitic infection was determined to be 72.92% based on faecal examination. Among ruminant species, goats exhibited a significantly higher (P < 0.05) (78.63%) compared cattle, buffalo, and sheep. Additionally, female showed (P<0.05) (85.62%) males (65.13%). intestines (both small large) large were found more affected, with 39.58%...
Abstract In the present study, anthelmintic activities of Arundo (A.) donax L., Areca (Ar.) catechu and Ferula (F.) assa-foetida L. were determined. Leaves A. latex F. seeds Ar. in different solvent fractions subjected to vitro (egg hatch assay; EHA, adult motility AMA) vivo (faecal egg count reduction test; FECRT) tests activity using Haemonchus contortus model. AMA, crude aqueous methanol extracts (CAME) ethyl acetate at 10 hr post-treatment showed maximum mortality H. 12.5-50 mg mL-1....
Introduction: Toxoplasma gondii (an intracellular protozoan) causes toxoplasmosis in warm-blooded animals, including humans and dogs. The present study was carried out to investigate the seroprevalence of canine owned stray populations dogs Faisalabad District, Punjab, Pakistan. Materials Methods: Commercially available Latex Agglutination Test (LAT) kits were used for screening samples (139 150 owned), followed by confirmation through ELISA. For statistical analyses, chi-square correlate...
Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne, zoonotic disease which characterized by and hemorrhages in humans but asymptomatic livestock. In the present investigation, research was conducted to determine seroprevalence of CCHF virus IgG antibodies, intrinsic extrinsic factors associated with distribution cattle, goats, sheep two provinces (Nangarhar Kunar) Afghanistan. The blood samples (n=768), data related risk were collected, determined using double antigen (DA) ELISA. Based...
