  • polymorphism of calpastatin gene in arabic Sheep using pcr rflp
    African Journal of Biotechnology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Marjan Mohammadi, Mtb Nasiri, K Alamisaeid, J Fayazi, M Mamoee, A S Sadr
    Abstract:

    Calpastatin has been known as candidate gene in muscle growth efficiency and meat quality. This gene has been located to chromosome 5 of Sheep. In order to evaluate the calpastatin gene polymorphism, random blood sample were collected from 111 Arabic Ram Sheep from different regions. The DNA extraction was based on Boom et al. (1989) method. Exon and entron I from L domain of the ovine calpastatin gene was amplified to produce a 622 bp fragment. The PCR products were electrophoresed on 1.2% agarose gel and stained by etidium bromide. Then, they were digested with restriction enzyme MspI and then electrophoresed on 2.5% agarose gel with ethidium bromide and revealed two alleles, allele A and allele B. Data were analysed using PopGene32 package. In this population, AA, AB, BB genotype have been identified with the 70.27, 28.82, 0.9% frequencies. A and B allele’s frequencies were 0.85, 0.15, respectively. The population was found to follow Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

  • Phenotypic characterization of Sheep breeds in Gamogofa zone
    Agriculture & Food Security, 2018
    Co-Authors: Fsahatsion Hailemariam, Dawit Gebremicheal, Hagos Hadgu
    Abstract:

    Background Information on the morphometric character of indigenous Sheep population in their habitat is prerequisite to set up the breed improvement under the farmer level in Ethiopia. Still, there is a long way to characterize, identify and document the existing indigenous Sheep type. The study was conducted in Gamogofa zone of Southern Ethiopian with the objective of describing the morphological characterization of the indigenous Sheep breed. Methods Purposive sampling techniques were employed to select target farmers. Qualitative, body weight and body measurement were taken from 736 Sheep. All the collected data were analyzed using Generalized Linear Model procedure of the statistical analysis system (release 9.1, 2003). Results Plain black (34%) and red (19.6%) are the dominant color types with long thin tail (88.2%) in both ewe and Ram Sheep. Almost 99.3% of ewe’s and 100% of Rams had no wattle. The majority (90.4%) of the Sheep had a straight tail form at the tip, straight head profiles (88.7%) and also horizontal ear forms (51.2). Agroecology, sex, and age had a significant effect on body weight and linear body measurements. The mean body weight, whiter height, body length, chest girth, shoulder width, cannon bone width, tail length, and tail circumference for Ram and ewe Sheep were 28.1 ± 0.37 and 24.0 ± 0.18, 58.6 ± 0.32 and 56 ± 0.05, 65.5 ± 0.35 and 62.3 ± 0.17, 75.9 ± 0.47 and 71.0 ± 0.21, 16.95 ± 0.18 and 15.24 ± 0.09, 7.45 ± 0.06 and 6.5 ± 0.03, 27.44 ± 0.3 and 21.04 ± 0.26, 17.11 ± 0.42 and 9.56 ± 0.14 cm, respectively. Body weight and linear body measurements were higher in Ram and increased with age. The correlation coefficient between body weight and most of the linear body measurement at different sex and age group were positive. The highest correlation coefficient was obtained between body weight and chest girth for both sex and age groups. Conclusion It was concluded that native Sheep had a possible for the versatile role to generate income for livestock keepers. Therefore, genetic improvment progRam should aim at farmers need to cope with trait preference and existing traditional herding and breeding practice.

    Abstract:

    Aluno do curso de Medicina Veterinaria, UEL.RESUMOO principal objetivo deste trabalho foi o de avaliar oganho de peso e os componentes do peso vivo em ovinos inteirosou castrados abatidos aos 12 meses de idade. FoRam usados 16borregos Ile de France, sendo metade inteiros e metade castra-dos, e oito Hampshire Down castrados. Os borregos foRammantidos em pastagem de gRama Coast-Cross e foRam pesadosdos tres aos 12 meses de idade, quando abatidos. Nao houvediferencas entre as racas para peso, ganhos de peso e para oscomponentes do peso vivo. Porem, os machos inteiros da raca Ilede France ganhaRam mais peso dos tres aos 12 meses do que oscastrados, com medias, respectivamente, de 0,078 e 0,063kg pordia; o ganho de peso medio diario para os borregos HampshireDown foi de 0,064kg. As medias para os pesos vivos no abate epara os rendimentos de carcaca quente (entre parenteses) foRam:38,54 (47,51%); 36,08 (47,82%) e 36,44 (46,38%)kg, respectiva-mente, para os borregos Ile de France inteiros, Ile de Francecastrados e Hampshire Down castrados. Os resultados indicamque, quando o abate for realizado aos 12 meses de idade, o usode machos inteiros e recomendado devido ao seu maior ganho depeso.Palavras-chave: carcaca, carneiros, desempenho, peso, ovinos .SUMMARYThe main objective of this work was to evaluate theweight gain and live weight components of intact or castratedlambs slaughtered at 12 months of age. Sixteen Ile de Francelambs, half intact and half castrated, and eight castrated Hamp-shire Down lambs were used in this experiment. The animalswere kept on a Coast-Cross pasture from three to 12 months ofage, and then slaughtered. There were no differences betweenbreeds for weight, weight gain and live weight components.However, intact Ile de France lambs had a greater daily weightgain than castrated Ile de France lambs, with averages of 0.078and 0.063kg, respectively; the average daily weight gain for thecastrated Hampshire Down was 0.064kg. The averages for liveweight before slaughtering and hot dressing percentage were:38.54, 36.08 and 36.44kg, and 47.51, 47.82 and 46.38%, respec-tively, for intact Ile de France, castrated Ile de France and cas-trated Hampshire Down lambs. The use of intact males is recom-mended, due their greater weight gain, when slaughter occurs at12 months of age.Key words: carcass, performance, Ram, Sheep, weight, wether .
