Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDNA Polymorphism of Bovine Pituitary-Specific Transcription Factor and Leptin Gene Between Iranian Bos indicus and Bos taurus CattleArash Javanmard, Nader Asadzadeh, Fatollah SarhadiProblem statement: Variations at DNA level contribute to the genetic characterization of livestock populations and this may help to identify possible hybridization events as well as past evolutionary trends. Approach: The leptin and Pit-1 are attractive candidate genes for production and reproduction traits in cattle. A total of 247 Animals from four breeds from two species of Iranian cattle populations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,024 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesticular Development in Holstein, F1 Crossbred Holstein-Gyr, Gyr, and Nellore Bulls During Puberty and Sexual Maturity in Tropical ConditionsGustavo Eduardo Freneau, Jose Domingos Guimaraes, Vicente Ribeiro Vale Filho, Arnhold EmmanuelContext: Puberty and sexual maturity are very important economic aspects in the beef industry and bull production. The aim of this study was to characterize and determine the sexual development of Bos taurus, Bos indicus, and F1 crossbreeds of these two subspecies of bulls and their testicular growth and shape. We observed the evolution of testicular development characteristics and seminal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 9 Jul 2026 · 1,197 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIS-CATTLE: A Web Server for Breed Identification using Microsatellite DNA MarkersSarika Jaiswal, Sandeep Kumar Dhanda, M. A. Iquebal et al.Domestic cow, Bos taurus is one of the important species selected by humans for various traits, viz. milk yield, meat quality, draft ability, resistance to disease and pests and social and religious reasons. Since cattle domestication from Neolithic (8,000-10,000 years ago) today the population has reached 1.5 billion and further it’s likely to be 2.6 billion by 2050. High magnitude … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2016 · 9,310 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Characterization and Comparative Analysis of Allergenicity of Allergic Proteins from Different Food SourcesSourav Chakraborty, Shakhawat Hossain Foysal, Md. Nazmul Hasan, Nahian KhanAllergy is a steadily increasing health problem for all age groups. In general, it’s recommended that 10-35% of our daily calories come from protein. A complete protein source is one that provides all of the essential amino acids called high quality proteins. Although animal-based foods; for example, meat, poultry, fish, milk, eggs, are considered complete protein sources these are the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 1 Dec 2014 · 7,360 accessesView PDF Cite
