Abstract:
Breed characterization is a primary step in designing appropriate management and conservation programs of livestock in developing countries. Since cattle represent a major food animal species in Zambia, its conservation is a major goal for both the government and non-governmental organizations. To support the conservation effort, the objective of this thesis research was to assess the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of indigenous Zambian cattle breeds including Angoni, Barotse, Tonga, and Baila based on body measurements and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, respectiv

Abstract:
Effective conservation strategies for livestock populations will require breeds to be characterized on the basis of their genetic attributes. Genetic markers can be used to survey breed relationships and within-breed population structure. They can also be used for the identification of breeds. In this study markers were used to investigate genetic relationships among thirty-seven European cattle breeds. Blood group (A,B,C,F,L,S,Z) and serum protein (transferrin and albumin) polymorphisms in 18,859 animals were analysed. French, Italian and Channel Island breeds were found to have generally hig

Content: Since hundreds of years, tanners share the opinion that hides from different cattle breeds lead to varying leather qualities. Especially European hides from the alpine region (e. g.

These leathers feature a higher thickness, a maximum utilisation induced by a minor thickness difference over the whole area and a lower tensile strength in contrast to leathers from other breeds. However, are these alpine hides better because of their breed affiliation or because they are kept in special regional conditions? It is known that, besides

Abstract:
La diversità genetica delle specie e razze di interesse zootecnico, rappresenta un’importante risorsa in tutti i sistemi di allevamento . Per lo studio della diversità genetica, nel corso dei decenni sono stati sviluppati diversi metodi che si basano su informazioni del pedigree o su dati molecolari (microsatelliti e SNPs, Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms). Con l’aumento della disponibilità di marcatori molecolari per la maggior parte delle specie di interesse zootecnico, e con lo sviluppo di sofisticate tecniche analitiche, sta crescendo la capacità di caratterizzare la variabilità genetica de

Abstract:
A trial was conducted to evaluate the ingestive behavior, pastures dynamics and productivity of cows of the Jersey and Holstein s breeds grazing annual-ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) in northwestern Rio Grande do Sul. From April 29th to October 29th of 2010, eleven tester-cows of each breed group, and a variable number of regulator-cows, were managed in rotational grazing with variable stocking rate and received a commercial concentrate at a rate of 1 kg of concentrate for every 3 liters of milk produced up to 15 liters/cow/day. Eight tester-cows of each breed group, two of each stage of lactat

Abstract:
Reproduction in beef cattle herds is a key driver of productivity and profitability of beef enterprises. Improving the efficiency of reproduction is necessary to keep pace with an increasing global demand for animal protein. Grazing lands across northern Australia, however, comprise large areas of relatively lowly productive land-types with hot, dry climates and unpredictable seasonal rainfall. The challenge for many north Australian beef enterprises is to improve reproduction in the tropically adapted beef breeds grazed extensively in these regions. Environmental factors influenced by climate

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to compare the growth performance and incidences of health disorders of the Drakensberger breed to the collective total of all other beef breeds in feedlots. The objective was to conduct a meta-analysis on the performance, health and centralised growth data (Phase C) of all cattle breeds from different regions in South Africa. The intention was not to compare different breeds with each other but only the Drakensberger breed to other breeds and crossbreeds generally found in feedlots. Results from Phase C performance tests at the centres, as well as historical growth a
