| impact of natural infestation of amblyomma variegatum on the liveweight gain of male gudali cattle in adamawa (cameroon). | the effect of natural tick infestation on the liveweight gain (lwg) of male gudali zebu cattle was studied throughout a year by comparing the performances of two herds, one of which was submitted to weekly acaricidal treatment and the other was left untreated against ticks. six species of ticks were identified on the untreated animals: amblyomma variegatum, boophilus decoloratus, rhipicephalus lunulatus, rhipicephalus turanicus, hyalomma nitidum and hyalomma marginatum rufipes. most of the losse ... | 1993 | 8249253 |
| effect of nutritional status on the ovarian follicular population, yield and quality of oocytes in the ngaoundere gudali zebu (bos indicus). | the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of nutritional status of the gudali cows slaughtered at the ngaoundere abattoir on follicular population, quality, and oocytes yield. | 2015 | 27047123 |
| poor inheritance of low attractiveness for amblyomma variegatum in cattle. | because of the high variability of cattle infestation, selective breeding has been proposed to control three-host ticks in africa in the same way as it has been implemented to control the one-host tick boophilus microplus in australia. interbreeding (divergent selection experiment) between gudali zebu cattle was performed at the wakwa research centre, adamawa, cameroon to assess the feasibility and impact of such a selective breeding programme. fifty cows (chosen out of 129) and 2 bulls (chosen ... | 2007 | 17418491 |
| onchocerca ochengi acquisition in zebu gudali cattle exposed to natural transmission: parasite population dynamics and igg antibody subclass responses to ov10/ov11 recombinant antigens. | ngaoundere gudali zebu cattle naturally exposed to simulium damnosum s.l. and culicoides spp. bites were examined during 4 years for o. ochengi adult worm acquisition, onchocerca ochengi and onchocerca gutturosa skin microfilaria dynamics, and igg1 and igg2 antibody subclass responses. eleven animals acquired a total of 465 o. ochengi nodules (average of 17 per female and 72 per male). the o. ochengi nodule load was highly variable in individual animals and exacerbated in mature male cattle. thr ... | 2004 | 15158555 |
