the immune response of zebu cattle infection with trypanosoma congolense and t. vivax. | zebu cattle were infected with trypanosoma congolense and t. vivax and changes in the levels of serum immunoglobulins were measured during infection and after treatment. increases in the levels of igm occurred within 14 days of infection coincidentally with the first appearance of trypanosomes in the peripheral blood. igm levels rose to 2-10 times preinfection levels and remained high until the animals were treated with diminazene aceturate. levels then declined to approximately pre-infection le ... | 1976 | 938121 |

the comparative incidence of foot rot in bos taurus and bos indicus cattle. | data on incidence of foot rot were collected over 2 years in a mixed herd of both bos taurus and bos indicus breed types. the level of infection was significantly higher in the bos taurus breeds than in the bos indicus breeds and raises the possibility of using resistant breeds where foot rot constitutes a major economic problem. | 1976 | 962739 |
growth and carcass characteristics of cattle and buffalo breeds reared on a dry zone pasture in sri lanka (ceylon). | growth and carcass characteristics were measured on calves from three cattle breeds-the sinhala, red sindhi and friesian-and two buffalo breeds-the local buffalo and murrah. the growth study was carried out on brachiaria brizantha pasture over a period of 48 weeks. the two buffalo breeds grew fastest followed by the two bos indicus breeds. the friesian cattle grew at the slowest rate. the sinhala and local buffalo had normal haematocrit values while the values for all other breeds were lower. th ... | 1976 | 968951 |

[2 genetic systems of serum amylase in the kholmogor breed of cattle]. | all the genetic types of amylase i (ami) and amylase ii (amii) known for the species bos taurus are encountered in the kholmogorskaya breed of cattle. besides the two alleles, amib and amic found in all the other european breeds of cattle the locus in the kholmogorskaya breed also includes a rare allele ami-a hitherto considered to be characteristic only of zebu-like cattle. the frequencies of the alleles ami-a, ami-b and ami-c in the kholmogorskaya breed proved to be 0.014, 0.392 and 0.594 resp ... | 1976 | 976750 |

incidence of toxoplasmosis in domestic animals in afghanistan. | the authors investigated a total of 435 domestic animals in afghanistan by micromodification of indirect hemagglutination test. camels showed the highest incidence of infection (73.7%). of 9 zebu 3 were positive. the incidence of infection in goats was 31.6%, in sheep 20.4%, in buffaloes 20.4%. the lowest percentages of positive titres was detected in cattle (15.7). | 1976 | 1010495 |

nutritional studies on east african herbivores. 2. losses of nitrogen in the faeces. | 1. a series of nitrogen-balance trials was done using groups of four animals of various species of wild and domesticated ruminants using pelleted diets (arman & hopcraft, 1975). 2. various herbivores were given grass or grass hays, legumes, herbs and shrubs. food and faecal samples were analysed for n. 3. with the pelleted diets, the n content of the faecal dry matter (dm) was low for eland (taurotragus oryx pallas), high for sheep and cattle (bos taurus and bos indicus) and intermediate for the ... | 1975 | 1115763 |
the erythrokinetics of zebu cattle chronically infected with trypanosoma congolense. | the erythrokinetics of ethiopian zebu cattle infected with t congolense were studied at 12-16 weeks after infection using 59fe and 51cr-labelled red cells. the severe anaemia which developed as a result of the infectionw as found to be due principally to a massive loss of red cells from the circulation. | 1975 | 1118657 |
growth and lipid metabolism in genetically different types of calves in a tropical environment. | growth rates were compared in suckling britves of cows grazing in a tropical environment. the plasma lipid composition of calves and their dams was examined at intervals from 14 weeks post-partum to 3 weeks post-weaning. growth rates from birth to weaning were significantly higher (p less than 0.01) in zubru than in british calves. plasma concentrations of cholesterol and phospholipid were always higher in zebu than in british calves and in brahman cross calves increased from 14 to 19 weeks of a ... | 1975 | 1132770 |
