Abstract:

In sheep raised for meat production, the relationship between external udder conformation, colostrum quality, and lamb growth rates has not received much attention. We hypothesized that ewes with a more desirable udder conformation at lambing would have greater colostrum quality and greater growth rates in lambs. Fifty Suffolk ewes were used in this study. Within 6–8 h of parturition, colostrum samples from both halves of the udder were collected and visual scoring of the udder was conducted. Colostrum quality was measured for total proteins using both optical and Brix refractometers. On day 2

Abstract:

Conformational variations between and within crossbred dairy cattle populations have significant economic and socio- cultural implications for producers. Therefore, this study was conducted to characterize conformation traits of crossbred dairy cows in the South Gondar zone, Amhara Region, Ethiopia. A total of 204 lactating crossbred dairy cows were selected for measurement purposes. The independent variables considered were location, stage of lactation, genotype level, and parity while linear body conformations (Stature (STA), Chest Width (CW), Body Depth (BW), Body Length (BL), Rump Length (

Abstract:

The external morphological traits of the mammary gland, and their relationships with somatic cell count (SCC) and the presence of intramammary infection (IMI), were studied in 30 Serrana goats, Transmontano ecotype. Globular-shaped udders were the most predominant, with slightly separated and symmetrical halves, presenting some degree of suspension. Funnel-shaped teats were the most prevalent shape with an opening of 120° to 160° degrees. Significant differences were observed between healthy group and the coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS)-infected group for udder cleft, teat perimeter and

Abstract:

Abstract Poor udder and teat confirmation decreases profitability due to decreased calf weaning weight, increased incidence of mastitis and labor, and decreased cow lifetime productivity. Therefore, the objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate the effect of beef cow udder score on cow performance and pre- and postweaning progeny performance. In a 5-yr study, crossbred cows at the Gudmundsen Sandhills Laboratory, Whitman, NE, were assigned an udder score each year at calving, from 1 to 5, using an udder and teat combination score. Cows were grouped by udder scores and classified as

Abstract:

Abstract Udder characteristics are related to infection susceptibility and a calf’s ability to suckle its dam. Teat shape, teat size, udder suspension, and udder balance are main factors producers examine when evaluating cows, as per the Beef Improvement Federation guidelines. Based on previous studies that have identified genomic regions of interest for udder conformation, our objective was to determine if CAPN3, VDR, LETM1, GPRC5C, REN, and ABHD2 genes were associated with udder conformation.

Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) was used to identify the SNP (410 bp and 475 bp) in PCR amplified product of intron 4 and exon 10 in WDR41 gene. Both of them were polymorphic with Guanine to Adenine transition, and three genotypes namely AA, AG and GG were observed. In ANKRD31 gene, RFLP was used to identify the SNP in 513 bp

Fifty-eight apparently healthy cows in early lactation at 2nd, 3rd, and 4th parity were used in the study. The data obtained from the cows were test day milk yield (TDMY) from single milking and udder morphology traits comprising udder length (UL), udder width (UW), udder depth (UD), fore teat length (FTL), rear teat length (RTL), fore teat diameter (FTD), and rear teat diameter (RTD). There was no significant effect of parity on TDMY or the udder morphology traits. Phenotypic correlations

Abstract. Type-performance of udder of Holstein-Friesian was analyzed using multi-trait animal model in two different environments (Hungary and Egypt). Udder traits were: udder height and depth. Teat traits were teat length, attachment and placement. Multi-trait animal model was used to compute estimates of additive variance and covariance components. 2507 records of 549 cows and 6011 records of 2018 cows were collected from Egypt and Hungary respectively. Heritability estimates of udder and teat characteristics ranged from 0.35 to 0.45 and from 0.32 to 0.59 in Hungarian and Egyptian cows, res

Sire of cow was significant for calf birth weight (P = 0.014) among ET cows, but not NS cows. Among NS families, calves from cows out of Brahman-Hereford dams were 2.0 kg heavier (P = 0.064) at birth than calves from cows out of Brahman-Angus dams.
