Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn vitro Kinematics Semen Tolerance to Oxidative StressCyril Mpho PilaneInterpretation of semen kinematic parameters remain as a point of discussion in predicting semen quality following processes like cryopreservation. During cryopreservation, oxidative stress remains a challenge in promoting post-thaw semen quality. Comparison of livestock semen exposed to oxidative stress, in vitro, highlight various aspects of sperm cell movement, like kinematics, to predict their qualities. Sperm cell kinematics includes the measurement … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2024 · 4,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroduction of the Pasture Plant Fescue (Festuca valesiaca) for the Improvement of Degraded Pastures in the Steppe Zone of KazakhstanMeldebekova Nurgul Alikhanovna, Seitbattalova Ainur Islamovna, Ainebekova Bakyt Alpysbaevna et al.This study presents the results of a comprehensive evaluation of Festuca valesiaca, a dominant perennial grass species widely used in steppe ecosystems for pasture improvement. Previous research has demonstrated the importance of native fescue species in enhancing productivity and resilience of degraded rangelands under arid conditions. However, breeding efforts for this species in Kazakhstan remain insufficiently developed. The research was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethods for Growing Complete Feed for Livestock on the Forage Lands of West Kazakhstan in the Framework of Sustainable ManagementBeybit Nasiyev, Peizhi Yang, Azhar Latenova et al.Sustainable management of forage lands is critical for livestock productivity in the arid and semi-arid regions of West Kazakhstan, where pasture degradation and declining forage quality pose increasing challenges to agricultural sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different grazing methods on the vegetation condition, productivity, and nutritional quality of pastures in West Kazakhstan. Pasture vegetation was assessed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in the Composition and Diversity of Pasture Grass Due to the Influence of Grazing in the Steppe Zone of Northern KazakhstanAliya Baitelenova, Balzhan Akhylbekova, Meisam Zargar et al.Overgrazing poses a serious threat to the sustainability of steppe pasturelands in Northern Kazakhstan, where intensifying livestock pressure drives significant changes in vegetation composition, species diversity, and soil fertility. This study investigated the effects of grazing intensity on pasture vegetation and chestnut soil properties in the Zhaksyn district of the Akmola region. Field surveys were conducted in July-August 2024 using … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2026 · 1,338 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency and Sustainability of Alternative Protein Sources for Livestock Production in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisOlusegun Oyebade Ikusika, Bulo Luvuyo, Jaja Ishmeal FestusSub-Saharan Africa (SSA) faces growing challenges in sustainable livestock production due to high costs and limited availability of conventional protein sources such as soybean meal and fishmeal. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the nutritional efficiency and sustainability of locally available alternative protein sources for livestock feed in SSA. Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParasites of Wild Animals Inhabiting the Territory of the Balkhash-Alakol Basin (Central Asia: Kazakhstan)Laura Zhanteliyeva, Nurgul Jussupbekova, Maratbek Suleimenov et al.This study presents data on the diversity and epizootiological significance of intestinal parasites in wild mammals inhabiting the arid Balkhash-Alakol Basin in southeastern Kazakhstan. The primary aim was to identify the range of parasites affecting local wildlife and assess potential zoonotic risks under natural ecological conditions. Field samples were collected non-invasively from three host species: Tolai hare (Lepus tolai), wild … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 27 Nov 2025 · 2,160 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe European Wild Boar (Sus scrofa) as a Reservoir of Tuberculosis: Ecological Drivers and Management ImplicationsGiovanna Liguori, Renato Lombardi, Fabio Castagna et al.Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), an infectious disease primarily caused by Mycobacterium bovis and other members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, represents a significant challenge to both animal and public health. Despite successful control programs in numerous regions, the presence of wildlife reservoirs, notably wild boar (Sus scrofa), impedes complete eradication and sustains disease propagation. bTB prevalence varies across Europe, with higher … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 16 Nov 2025 · 2,621 accessesView PDFCite
