Polymorphism and Comparative Expression Analysis of THRSP Gene in Fat-Tailed and Thin-Tailed Sheep Breeds

Wool production in some fat-tailed iranian sheep breeds I. some quantitative characteristics of karakul.mehraban,naeini,ghezel and bakhtiari breeds

Polymorphism Analysis of Henan Fat-tailed Sheep Using Microsatellite Markers

Five microsatellite markers were selected for studying the DNA polymorphism of fat-tailed sheep, aiming to understand the genetic diversity of this species. The genetic diversity of five microsatellite markers (BL1038, BM757, BM4621, OarFCB304 and OarFCB48) in fat-tailed sheep population was detected through the native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The results indicated that fat-tailed sh...

Crossbreeding of iranian fat-tailed sheep VI-reproductive performance and lamb production in karakul,mehraban and naeini breeds

Pharmacokinetics of tetracycline hydrochloride in fat-tailed sheep

Tetracycline may be used to treat several types of bacterial diseases in ruminants. In addition, tetracycline is added to food to promote the growth. There are few reports on the pharmacokinetics of tetracycline in sheep. Therefore, the objective of this study was to examine the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the drug in sheep. Ten apparently healthy mixed-breed sheep were administered 20 m...

Effect of dietary energy level and docking on carcass characteristics of fat-tailed Kurdi sheep

Effects of partial docking on feedlot performance and body fat characteristics were studied in a fat-tailed sheep breed. Thirty-eight male lambs with an average weight of 4.44 ± 0.48 were randomly divided into two groups. The lambs in one group were partially docked at 3-4 h after birth, using rubber rings, and the lambs in another group remained intact (control). After weaning, 20 male lambs f...
