Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAFLPs in Warmblood Sporting Horses: Genetic Correlation with Height at the WithersV. Sanchez, C. Lemus, A. Inchaustegui et al.The Mexican army produces Warmblood horses for jumping proposes. However, breeding is based on phenotype and stallions are selected stepwise until the end of growth, representing a high care and maintenance cost. In this work using 64 selective primer combinations and AFLP technology we identified specific molecular markers related with height at the withers measurements of Warmblood horses. AFLPs generated … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGrowth Traits as Indicators of Body Weights in Dorper SheepMolabe Kagisho Madikadike, Vusi Mbazima, Busisiwe Gunya, Thobela Louis TyasiThe growth traits help rural farmers who lack weighing equipment to anticipate the body weights of their animals for a variety of reasons, including feeding, medication, and breeding purposes. The study aims to predict body weights from the growth traits of Doper sheep. Data on growth traits such as body length, heart girth, sternum height, withers height, rump height, and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 26 Dec 2022 · 6,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBreeding Progress in Mugalzhar Horses: The Irtysh Type as a Model for Meat Production EfficiencyAkimbekov Amin, Uskenov Rashit, Nurgulsim Kaster et al.The Mugalzhar horse breed holds significant value for meat production in Kazakhstan. Developed through targeted selection, the new Irtysh stud type demonstrates outstanding adaptation and productivity, with stallions reaching an average live weight of 486.1 kg and mares 463.4 kg, an increase of up to 73 kg compared to the original group. The coefficient of variation for live weight and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 29 Nov 2025 · 2,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn-Farm Phenotypic Characterization of Sheep Breeds in BotswanaKaelo Pelotshweu, Monosi Andries Bolowe, Nicodemus Pungi Mosweu et al.Phenotypic characterization data serve as a baseline for the evaluation of the effectiveness of selection programs and the development of conservation strategies. Therefore, this study aimed to phenotypically characterize Tswana, Dorper, Damara, Meat-master, and Karakul sheep breeds in Botswana under a ranch management system. Qualitative and quantitative data was collected from 595 adult sheep (one year and above). Data on … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 1 Mar 2025 · 7,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines and Classification Regression Tree for Prediction of Body Weight of Bapedi SheepMadumetja Cyril Mathapo, Ramaisela Barley Mthembu, Albino Joas Tsenane et al.The study aimed to compare the performance of multiple adaptive regression splines and classification regression trees for the prediction of the body weight of Bapedi sheep. A total of 100 Bapedi sheep aged between one and five years old of different sexes were employed. The study measured the following: Body Length (BL), Withers Height (WH), Heart Girth (HG), Rump Height … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 12 Jul 2024 · 5,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Morphometric Traits to Estimate Live Body Weight of South African Bapedi SheepThabang Sako, Jones Ng’ambi, Thomas Raphulu et al.This study was carried out for the estimation of Body Weight (BW) of bapedi sheep from Body Length (BL), Sterna Height (SH), Heart Girth (HG), Height at Withers (WH), Rump Height (RH) and Head Length (HL). Correlation and regression were used. Correlation displayed that body weight is highly positively associated (p<0.01) with WH and HG in males while for females, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 26 Jun 2024 · 5,651 accessesView PDFCite
