Sheep from four Merino flocks, different in annual clean fleece production when grazed together, were offered a range of nutritional treatments to compare their ability to digest dietary organic matter (experiment 1) and to compare the relationships of wool growth and fibre diameter with nutrient intake (experiment 2). The sheep were selected from a finewool (Fl), a strong wool (S), and two medium-Peppin (MP6 and MP10) flocks. The nutritional treatments varied intakes of two pelleted diets-B and F. Diet B consisted of oat grain, lucerne chaff, and oaten straw, while diet F was as for B but for

SUMMARYThe wool production of pregnant, lactating and non-pregnant, non-lactating (dry) Merino ewes eating one of three diets: chaffed oaten hay (OH), chaffed lucerne hay (LH), and a 50/50 (w/w) mixture of OH and LH, was determined. Measurements were made for 2 months prior to mating, during pregnancy and for 3 months after lambing, and for the dry ewes over the same period.Production of clean wool (Y, g/day) by dry ewes was linearly related to digestible organic matter intake (X, g/day):Y = 0·0301 X - 3·34, r = 0·97.Clean wool growth was significantly less (P < 0·01) than dry ewes in the 4

The effect on wool growth of thyroidectomy with subsequent thyroxine replacement at subnormal and supranormallevels has been investigated in Merino rams fed a restricted basal diet. Thyroidectomy without thyroxine replacement caused a greater than 60% reduction in wool growth. Provision of 30% of normal plasma thyroxine concentrations was sufficient to return wool growth to normal. Similarly, complete replacement of plasma thyroxine levels gave normal wool growth while increasing thyroxine concentrations to three times normal increased wool growth to levels slightly above normal.

The aims of this work were to quantify the requirements of Zn for wool growth in growing male Merino lambs, and to describe the histological lesions of Zn deficiency in skin and wool follicles. Four groups of male Merino lambs (n 4) weighing 22 kg were fed ad lib. for 96 d on diets that contained 4 (basal diet), 10, 17 or 27 mg Zn/kg. Sheep in a fifth group were fed on the diet containing 27 mg Zn/kg, but were pair-fed to sheep on the 4 mg Zn/kg diet. Zn was added to the basal diet as ZnSO4 to give the respective treatment concentrations. Sheep fed on the diet containing 4 mg Zn/kg showed clin

Periodic clean wool weight, yield, fibre diameter, and the coefficient of variation (CV%) for fibre diameter were measured from midside patches harvested every6 weeks.There was a significant effect of time of wool harvest on clean wool weight per cm2, yield, fibre diameter(all P<0.01), and its CV% (P<0.05). A trough in wool production occurred about August-September and a peak in January. The amplitude of the photoperiodic rhythm of wool growth

Summary. A model has been fitted to results from experimental application of organophosphates, synthetic pyrethroids and insect growth regulators to sheep mostly in long wool. The model relates the rate of breakdown of pesticide to the chemical used, the method of application and the length of wool at the time of treatment. A genetic algorithm was used to combine a range of experimental results for each chemical group to determine the rate of breakdown, and also the effect of application method and length of wool on breakdown. Organophosphates break down very quickly when applied to the surfac

The hypothesis was tested that when nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) are mobilised from body tissue the rate of wool growth is determined both by the amount of N and S apparently digested and by the amount of N and S mobilised from body tissue. The experiment consisted of seven 5-day periods (Periods 1–7) and N and S retention were measured during each period in 12 mature Merino wethers. During Periods 2 and 3, casein and methionine were infused into the abomasum of all sheep to increase the amount of N and S absorbed in the small intestine.

Variations in the wool growth rate of sheep fed diets containing cereal grains were investigated. In experiment 1, eight sheep consuming similar quantities of a pelleted diet of barley grain and lucerne chaff (60:40 by weight) were selected for high (n = 4) or low (n = 4) wool growth rate. These wool growth differences were eliminated by feeding a high-protein, predominantly roughage diet. Subsequent reintroduction of the high-grain diet regenerated wide between-sheep variance, but there was little evidence of repeatability of performance on this ration.

Hetian sheep is a breed of sheep unique to the Hetian area of Xinjiang whose wool is used for producing blankets. Individual differences and hair follicle density are the key factors affecting wool production. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the Hetian sheep having different wool densities to statistically analyze the wool traits and hair follicle parameters. Furthermore, the transcriptome sequencing analysis was performed on the skins with different wool densities. The results showed that wool quantity and total hair follicle density of the high wool density sheep was significantly high

AbstractWool growth, staple strength and fibre diameter are reduced during pregnancy and lactation. This may be due to the increased requirement for protein for foetal growth, udder development and milk production causing a lack of amino acids for wool. Responses in wool production, ewe live weight, lamb birth weight and growth, plasma amino acids and levels of cortisol, insulin and growth hormone were measured when different sources of protein were offered.

This was based on experimental breakdown rates of these insecticides on wool determined in controlled trials.
