standard karyotype and chromosomal evolution of the fallow deer (dama dama l.). | g-banding, c-banding and silver staining techniques were used to study the chromosomes of the fallow deer dama dama (2n = 68, nf = 70). on the basis of g-banded metaphases a diagrammatic representation of banding patterns at the 350 band level is proposed. c-banding reveals constitutive heterochromatin in the centromeric regions of all the acrocentric chromosomes. faint c-banding is present in the centromere of the y chromosome, while the single pair of metacentrics are c-band negative. the nucl ... | 1990 | 2090390 |
[the sertoli cell nucleolus in domestic and wild animals]. | sertoli cells produce special microenvironment for developing germ cells; therefore it is assumed that they play primary role in the onset and control of spermatogenesis. in this connection we extended our previous study on the ultrastructure of sertoli cells in different domestic and wild animals with special regard to nucleolus. sertoli cells of domestic and wild ruminants possess the typical vesicular nucleolus except for fallow deer, in this species no vesicular nucleolus occurs in sertoli c ... | 1990 | 2102585 |
the pineal gland of the red deer male. histology and ultrastructure with notes on the fallow deer and mouflon pineals. | the most conspicuous morphological feature of the investigated red deer pineal gland was very deep pineal recess, covered with continuous layer of the ependymal cells. its branches (2-3) reached the distal part of the gland. the slight differences in pineal structure of sexually active and sexually inactive red deer were observed. relatively large pineal glands both of mouflon and fallow deer showed many common as well as different structural features. | 1990 | 2136651 |
yersiniosis in farmed deer. | samples from 77 chital (axis axis), 42 fallow (dama dama), 26 red (cervus elaphus), 7 rusa (cervus timorensis) and 1 sambar deer (cervus unicolor) were examined. yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection was diagnosed as the cause of death in 6 (23%) of the red and 23 (30%) of the chital deer. yersiniosis was the most common infectious cause of death diagnosed. affected deer were usually found moribund or dead, often with faecal staining of the perineum. gross pathology in chital included a fibrinou ... | 1990 | 2222364 |
the reproductive performance of farmed fallow deer (dama dama) in new south wales. | observations on the reproductive performance of fallow deer on 47 farms in new south wales were made over 6 consecutive years. the minimum fawning rate for does varied significantly (p less than 0.001) between years, the corresponding fawning percentages varying from 75.0% to 96.4%, with an overall mean of 88.8%. the weaning rate also varied significantly (p less than 0.001) between years, the corresponding percentages varying from 65.0% to 89.1% with a mean over 6 years of 81.4%. weaning rates ... | 1990 | 2222374 |
prevalence, ultrastructure of the cyst wall and infectivity for the dog and cat of sarcocystis sp. from fallow deer (cervus dama). | the prevalence of sarcocystis sp. (protozoa: sarcocystidae) in fallow deer (cervus dama) in tuscany, italy was determined by digestion technique and histological examination. forty-four of 45 fallow deer were infected. infections occurred in adult deer and in fawns. samples from the heart were more intensively parasitized than samples from tongue, oesophagus and diaphragm muscle. with transmission electron microscopy, the primary cyst wall was folded and formed narrow, overlapping, sinuous proje ... | 1988 | 3127606 |
an outbreak of meningo-encephalitis in fallow deer caused by listeria monocytogenes. | an outbreak of listeric meningo-encephalitis occurred in a population of 1800 fallow deer (dama dama) in a park during the winter and early spring of 1985 to 1986. listeriosis was diagnosed in 41 of 42 fallow deer that showed the typical central nervous system signs of circling disease or were found dead. the diagnosis was verified by bacteriological examination of the brains of 35 animals. in five of the seven remaining cases listeriosis was diagnosed by histological examination, and in one ani ... | 1988 | 3131946 |
the reversal of xylazine/ketamine immobilisation of fallow deer with yohimbine. | fallow deer were immobilised using a combination of xylazine and ketamine. adult males (n = 10) and adult females (n = 10) received 4 mg/kg of each drug intramuscularly. juveniles (n = 11) received 2 mg/kg of each drug, intravenously. times to recumbency were as follows: adult males 4.9 +/- 2.9 min, adult females 4.1 +/- 1.9 min, juveniles 2.3 +/- 1.1 min. after 30 min each deer received 0.2 mg/kg of yohimbine, or an equal volume of sterile diluent intravenously. yohimbine substantially reduced ... | 1990 | 2264802 |

[raising of fallow deer inside fences from the view of ethics and animal welfare]. | during the last years, keeping of fallow deer for the purpose of meat production has become a branch of industry that requires special attention from the view of ethology and animal protection. in zoological and judicial terms, the deer habituated to paddock keeping still belong to wild animals that are held captive. this paper describes the valid demands of fallow deer to its biotic and abiotic environment and deals in particular with population density, feeding practices, antlers amputation, k ... | 1990 | 2351053 |
temporal relationship between the onset of oestrus, the preovulatory lh surge and ovulation in farmed fallow deer, dama dama. | a study was conducted to determine the timing of ovulation relative to the onset of oestrus and the preovulatory lh surge in fallow deer. mature fallow does were randomly allocated to two treatments (n = 10 per treatment) designed to synchronize oestrus on or about 17 may. does assigned to group 1 (prostaglandin-induced oestrus) each initially received single intravaginal cidr [controlled internal drug release] devices for 13 days followed by an i.m. injection of 750 mg cloprostenol on day 12 (1 ... | 1990 | 2402000 |
adrenal and ovarian sources of progesterone secretion in young female fallow deer, dama dama. | six young female fallow deer, including 3 that were ovariectomized at 9 months of age, were blood sampled at frequent intervals after i.v. injections of (1) acth analogue (tetracosactrin), (2) gnrh analogue (buserelin) and (3) saline solution on separate occasions at 11, 13, 15 and 18 months of age. relative to prechallenge plasma values, acth administration resulted in a 4-10-fold increase in mean plasma progesterone concentrations, but only a 10-45% increase in mean plasma cortisol concentrati ... | 1989 | 2495360 |
occurrence of intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies in the digestive epithelium of fallow deer (dama dama l). | intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies were observed in the digestive epithelium of fallow deer (dama dama l) suffering from bovine virus diarrhea/mucosal disease. similar inclusion bodies were also found in the ruminal epithelium of fallow deer subjected to overfeeding by supplementary food. inclusion bodies were not found in the upper alimentary mucosa of clinically healthy deer but were frequently found when these tissues were subjected to autolysis. at electron microscopical studies the inclusion ... | 1989 | 2560891 |
[legal regulations and practical application of studies of slaughtered game animals and their meat]. | meat regulations also involve game inspection. the previous publications on the one hand dealt with the regulations and their practice concerning game intended for slaughter, especially the control of fences and the gaining of meat. on the other hand regulations concerning game hunted for food (deer: red deer, sika deer, fallow deer, roe deer; horned ungulates: european mouflon, chamois; wild boar; european hare; european rabbit; game such as badger and raccoon) and regulations to be observed by ... | 1989 | 2617520 |
genetic polymorphism of transferrin in fallow deer, cervus dama l. | a study of 15 blood protein systems in fallow deer, cervus dama l., has revealed a transferrin polymorphism in two german populations for the first time in this species. genetic analysis of complete families suggests that the transferrin system is controlled by one gene locus with two codominant alleles. the comparison of the present results with other studies on this species leads to the hypothesis that at least the european mainland fallow deer populations are genetically more differentiated t ... | 1989 | 2619108 |
light and scanning electron microscopy of fallow deer (dama dama) spermatozoa. | no basic differences in size (mean +/- s.d. for at least 300 spermatozoa), shape and ultrastructure of the spermatozoa of fallow deer were detected (1) in comparison to other artiodactyls, (2) between different fallow bucks, and (3) between different months of the fertile season. the total length of the normal spermatozoon was 67.2 +/- 1.2 microns. the flat, paddle-shaped head was 8.2 +/- 0.3 microns long, 4.4 +/- 0.2 microns for the greatest width, 1.9 +/- 0.2 microns for basal width and, appro ... | 1989 | 2621694 |
pulmonary mycosis in farmed deer: allergic zygomycosis and invasive aspergillosis. | during 1988, pulmonary mycosis was diagnosed in four of 116 farmed deer examined on suspicion of tuberculosis. the histopathology showed allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis in a red deer (cervus elaphus) and the agent was identified as a zygomycete, probably absidia corymbifera, by immunofluorescence staining. three fallow deer (dama dama) had invasive necrotizing mycotic pneumonia and progressive exudative mycotic alveolitis caused by aspergillus fumigatus. in the red deer, weakness due to paratu ... | 1989 | 2689623 |
seasonal pattern of lh and testosterone secretion in adult male fallow deer, dama dama. | at monthly intervals during the year blood samples were collected every 20 min for 12 h from 4 entire and 2 prepubertally castrated adult fallow deer bucks. in the entire bucks there were seasonal changes in mean concentrations and pulse frequencies of plasma lh. mean concentrations in late summer and autumn were 3-6 times higher than during other seasons. lh pulse frequency was low (0-1 pulses/12 h) during most of the year and increased only during the 2-month period (january and february) that ... | 1989 | 2704002 |
physiological effects of etorphine, acepromazine and xylazine on the black fallow deer (dama dama). | confined and unconfined fallow deer (dama dama) of the black variety kept at whipsnade park were sedated with etorphine in combination with acepromazine, or xylazine or both, with or without atropine. induction, sedation and recovery times were recorded. during the period under sedation, systemic and pulmonary arterial pressures, electrocardiographs, body temperature, arterial blood gas pressures and ph, packed cell volume and plasma electrolytes and enzymes were monitored. in both groups, and w ... | 1989 | 2740632 |
mate choice on fallow deer leks. | leks, on which males defend small clustered mating territories, may have evolved because of the unusual opportunities they provide for female choice of mating partners, and several studies of lek-breeding animals have demonstrated correlations between the mating success of males and their phenotype or behaviour. however, these could arise because (1) females select mates on the basis of male phenotypic traits; (2) males interfere with each other's mating attempts; or (3) females show preferences ... | 1989 | 2755506 |
tumor-like growth of antlers in castrated fallow deer: an electron microscopic study. | male deer regenerate new sets of antlers each year. when fully grown, rising levels of testosterone promote antler ossification, cutting off the blood flow and causing the velvet integument to be shed. after the mating season, the old antlers fall off to be replaced by new ones. when the adult fallow deer is castrated in autumn or winter, its bony antlers are shed and replaced by usually shorter regenerates that remain permanently viable and in velvet. if prevented from winter freezing, these an ... | 1990 | 2080434 |
[diseases of the fallow deer in northeastern bulgaria and their prevention]. | stated are the values of the basic microelements in fallow deer in the region of northeast bulgaria as established through biogeochemical analysis. in unfavourable years metabolism is disturbed resulting in lowering the defense mechanism of the body. a number of bacterial species, and, more specifically, escherichia coli increase their virulence and cause gastrointestinal disorders and diseases. copper, selenium, and arsenic deficiency lead to endemic ataxia with characteristic clinical symptoms ... | 1986 | 3544470 |
potential role of native and exotic deer and their associated ticks (acari: ixodidae) in the ecology of lyme disease in california, usa. | the relationship of native columbian black-tailed deer, two species of exotic deer (axis and fallow), and their ticks to the lyme disease spirochete, borrelia burgdorferi, was studied in coastal and inland areas of northern california, usa. spirochetemias were detected in 27% of black-tailed deer, 50% of axis deer, and 56% of fallow deer collected in late fall and winter. antibody prevalence was 38% in black-tailed deer, 24% in fallow deer, and 6% in axis deer. one to 3 tick species were collect ... | 1986 | 3554845 |
transmission of megatrypanum trypanosomes to cervus dama by tabanidae. | four fallow deer, cervus dama, became infected with trypanosoma (megatrypanum) sp. by oral application of triturated guts from tabanids collected in an area with deer but without any cattle; four control calves remained negative. upon challenge with triturated guts from tabanids from an area with pastured cattle, the four calves became infected with trypanosoma (m.) theileri. the prepatent period in deer was five days or less. haematopota spp. and tabanus spp. were identified as vectors of the d ... | 1987 | 3572837 |
contribution to knowledge of the morphogenesis of the nasal apparatus of the fallow deer (dama dama l.). | as in the red deer, in the fallow deer embryo we found a number of ancestral structures reminiscent of relationships in other mammals, such as paraseptal cartilages, a septum nasi with trabecular widening, a lamina transversalis ant., a cart. ectochoanalis, a capsule wall with a roof and a lateral wall formed of a clearly distinguishable cart. parietotectalis and cart. paranasalis, an ethmoturbinale i projecting a long way rostrally and additionally, in the fallow deer, cart. paraseptales poster ... | 1990 | 2083886 |
seasonal changes of testis volume and sperm quality in adult fallow deer (dama dama) and their relationship to the antler cycle. | four adult male fallow deer were investigated for 1-4 consecutive years to study the relationships between annual changes in testis volume, sperm quality and antler status. testicular volume started to increase in july/august, peaked just before the rut, declined until december to 50% of maximum, persisted at this level up to february/march and reached minimal volume after antler casting in late april. there was no apparent age effect on the seasonality of testis size fluctuations. velvet sheddi ... | 1989 | 2915363 |
