Abstract:

Bangladesh possesses 0.64 million buffaloes. Genetic studies conducted by various scientists during the last 30 years indicate that these buffaloes are indigenous in nature and river type, except the buffaloes of the northeastern part of the country, which are swamp type. The milk yield and body weight of indigenous buffaloes are lower than those of recognized buffalo breeds. The body of adult buffalo ranges from 250 kg to 450 kg. There are approximately 12000 milking buffaloes. The milk yield of dairy buffaloes was 550 kg in 374 days. The outstanding food value of buffalo milk and meat is now

Abstract:

Water buffaloes in Turkey originate from Mediterranean Water Buffaloes, a subgroup of river water buffaloes and are known as Anatolian Water Buffalo. During the 1970’s the number of water buffaloes in Turkey was one million, but in 2010 this figure dropped to about 85.000. Thanks to the incentives introduced for water buffalo husbandry in recent years, the water buffalo population has risen to 143.073 heads. Water buffalo husbandry in Turkey is performed in some provinces of the Black Sea, Marmara and Central Anatolian Regions. The provinces with the highest amount of water buffalo existence a

Abstract:

This Research Communication describes the association between genetic variation within the prolactin (PRL) gene and the milk production traits of Italian Mediterranean river buffalo (Bufala mediterranea Italiana). High resolution melting (HRM) techniques were developed for genotyping 465 buffaloes. The association of genetic polymorphism with milk production traits was performed and subsequently the effects of parity and calving season were evaluated. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified at exons 2 and 5 and at introns 1 and 2. All the SNPs were in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium,

Abstract:

Consumers have shown more and more interest in high-quality and healthy dairy products and buffalo milk is commercially more viable than other milks in producing superior dairy products due to its higher contents of fat, crude protein, and total solids. Metabolomics is one of the most powerful strategies in molecular mechanism research however, little study has been focused on the milk metabolites in different buffalo species. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the underlying molecular mechanism of the fatty synthesis and candidate biomarkers by analyzing the metabolomic profiles.

In cattle and buffaloes resumption of ovarian activity, as expressed by first post partum ovulation and follicle turnover leading to periodic estrus cycles and ovulations, can be affected by many factors among which uterine infections and dietary supplementation play a leading role. In addition, buffaloes are considered seasonal animals characterized by a tendency to reproduce in correspondence to a decrease of day length. This aspect may further affect their reproductive efficiency by delaying or interrupting ovarian activity if calving occurs in transitional (i.e., from end winter into begin

The milking machine is a critical point, and the characteristics of the milking vacuum and the pulsation rate are closely related to milk flow observations. In Italy, the most used vacuum levels are 44-46 kPa (range 40-53 kPa). The data on the milkability traits of the Medit

In this study, a new comparison was tested in Mediterranean Italian buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis), between two different strategies for obtaining sperm cells of the desired sex. In addition, a control group of animals was included in the study, where only ordinary semen straws, containing unselected sper cells were used. Sexed and control straws were then used for Artificial Insemination (AI) in order to confront pregnancy and gender rates. The first of the two strategies to preselect sperm cells relies on the physical determination of DNA content in single spermatozoa though cell sorting machin

Abstract:

Embryo development is linked to several factors, such as intrinsic defects within the embryo, an inadequate maternal environment or failure of maternal response to embryonic signals. Reproductive seasonality in buffalo species (Bubalus bubalis) is responsible for the lower reliability of the pregnancy diagnosis by progesterone assay in spring, probably due to the high incidence of early embryo mortality (EEM) for hormonal reasons (Campanile et al., 1989; Proc. 2th National Meeting ‘Studio dell’efficienza riproduttiva degli animali di interesse zootecnico’: 51–57).

The buffalo dairy sector is extending its boundaries to include new buffalo cheese productions beyond mozzarella, overcoming some barriers that make cheeses expensive and unsustainable. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of both the inclusion of green feed in the diet of Italian Mediterranean buffaloes and an innovative ripening system on buffalo cheese quality, providing solutions capable of guaranteeing the production of nutritionally competitive and sustainable products. For this purpose, chemical, rheological, and microbiological analyses were carried out on cheeses. Buffaloes were f

Background/Objectives: Buffalo populations exhibit distinct genetic variations influenced by domestication history, geographic distribution, and selection pressures. This study investigates the genetic structure and differentiation of 11 buffalo populations, focusing on five loci related to milk protein (CSN1S1 and CSN3) and fat metabolism (LPL, DGAT1 and SCD). The aim is to assess genetic variation between river, swamp, and wild-type buffaloes and identify key loci contributing to population differentiation.

Abstract:

Milk yield and flow profiles are essential parameters to record and evaluate. Buffaloes are characterized by longer teats and teat canals and, in particular, stronger muscular resistance of the teat wall than in cows; it is necessary to have a high vacuum level to open the teat canal and begin milk ejection. The milk stored in the buffalo udder can be divided into two fractions: the cisternal fraction, which has already been transferred from the alveoli to the cistern during the interval between milkings and is immediately available, and the alveolar fraction, which can only be removed from th

AbstractThirty-two post-partum Mediterranean river buffalo cows were continuously observed for signs of oestrus from September to December with the aid of two vasectomized bulls. Symptoms of oestrus among female Mediterranean buffaloes are weak, therefore oestrus was assessed based on bull behaviour (following and licking a cow and trying to mount her). Oestrus was divided into three phases based on the bull behaviour assessment. Status of the uterus and ovarian follicles were checked rectally every day for each cow which was detected by a teaser bull to be in oestrus. All cows in oestrus were

The use of AI in the buffalo species is still marginal due to traditional lower conception rates when compared to cattle. However recently a number of studies in this field have revealed a promising increase in the efficiency of synchronization protocols for AI linked to more acceptable pregnancy rates. The possibility of using lower spermatozoa concentration of high quality buffalo bulls for AI without reduction in pregnancy outcome can be an additional offset, especially if such spermatozoa can be sexed and used for better reproductive management in buffalo farms.

Abstract:

The water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), also known as the Asian buffalo, is an essential domestic bovid. Indeed, although its world population (~209 million heads) is approximately one-ninth that of cattle, the management of this species involves a larger human population than that involved with raising cattle. Compared with cattle, water buffalo have been understudied for many years, but interest in this species has been increasing, especially considering that the world population of these bovids grows every year—particularly that of the river buffalo. There are two genera of buffalo worldwide:
