BACKGROUND The availability of the bovine genome sequence and SNP panels has improved various genomic analyses, from exploring genetic diversity to aiding genetic selection. However, few of the SNP on the bovine chips are polymorphic in buffalo, therefore a panel of single nucleotide DNA markers exclusive for buffalo was necessary for molecular genetic analyses and to develop genomic selection ...

Ovarian follicular fluid contains both stimulatory and inhibitory agents that influence the growth and maturation of oocyte. In the present study, an attempt was made to isolate and study the biological properties of ovarian follicular fluid peptide(s) in buffaloes. Bubaline ovarian follicular was made steroidand cell-free. A protein fraction was obtained by saturation (30-35% level) of the fol...

the major aim of this study was to compare the morphology and activity of rumen protozoa of khuzestan water buffalo and holstein cow using in vitro digestibility and gas production parameters of steam treated sugarcane pith. rumen fluid obtained from two buffalo and cow steers fed the same diet, 30:70 concentrate: forage. to separate rumen protozoa, antibiotic solution and fungicides were added...

There are morphological and reproductive physiological differences between swamp buffalo (Bubaluscarabanensis) and river buffalo (Bubalus bubalis). The development of fetus weight and fetus biometry wasreported in river buffalo and other animals but not in swamp buffalo. The aim of this study was to describethe inherent variability in fetus related measurements during swamp buffalo pregnancy. T...

The study aimed to determine the effects of different concentrations of glycerol and ethylene glycol and ultrarapid cryopreservation (vitrification) on survival and subsequent in vitro development of bubaline cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) in order to recognize the optimum cryoprotectant. Survival and in vitro maturation, fertilization and cleavage of buffalo COCs was evaluated subsequent to t...

Background: Detection of sperm parameters based on conventional methods, immediately after thawing, have been revealed sperm capacity to in vivo and in vitro fertilization. But this evaluation is not fully reliable because of long journey of sperm during female genital tract to reach the oocyte and fertilize it. Therefore, analyzing postthawed sperm parameters after incubation is more beneficia...
