| horse haemoglobin phenotyping by agarose gel isoelectric focusing comparison of thoroughbreds with other equidae. | by using isoelectric focusing in thin agarose slab gels 1049 thoroughbred, 82 nooitgedachter, 45 percheron and 244 horses of other breeds were examined. the numbers of other equidae tested were 107 donkeys, 50 mules, 4 common zebras (equus burchelli boehmi) and 8 mountain zebras (equus zebra hartmannae). phenotypic data are presented for all tested animals and gene frequencies are calculated for the horses. | 1984 | 6742514 |
| manual semen collection from a grevy's zebra stallion (equus grevyi), onset of sperm production, semen characteristics, and cryopreservation of semen, with a comparison to the sperm production from a grant's zebra stallion (equus burchelli boehmi). | a manual technique was used to collect representative ejaculates from an unrestrained grevy's zebra stallion beginning at 13 mo of age to determine the onset of sperm production, to calculate the number of spermatozoa produced per ejaculate, and to determine any seasonality associated with sperm production. spermatozoa first appeared in the ejaculate at 31 mo of age. by 48 mo of age the zebra was producing up to 40 billion spermatozoa per ejaculate. progressive sperm motility ranged from 75 to 9 ... | 1994 | 16727454 |
| the use of altrenogest to control aggression in a male grant's zebra (equus burchelli boehmi). | a male grant's zebra (equus burchelli boehmi) housed with two mares at the indianapolis zoo had a 9-yr history of intermittent aggressive behavior toward mares and other animals. periods of separation allowed the mares time to heal after sustaining superficial bite wounds. on 26 march 2003, the male (890293) was started on altrenogest at a dosage of 19.8 mg orally once daily to allow reintroduction. the dosage was doubled (40 mg once a day) because of a perceived lack of response. reintroduction ... | 2006 | 17312816 |
| sarcoids in captive zebras (equus burchellii): association with bovine papillomavirus type 1 infection. | sarcoids were diagnosed in two captive zebras from different facilities. zebra 1 (equus burchellii boehmi) was a 4.5-yr-old, captive-born male that presented with a 9- by 7-cm inguinal mass. seven months after surgical excision of the inguinal mass, the zebra presented with a similar lesion in the right upper eyelid that has relapsed repeatedly and has not responded to treatment including local cisplatin injections and cryosurgery. zebra 2 (of undetermined taxon) was housed at a private wild ani ... | 2005 | 17315460 |
