The present experiment aims to evaluate the effects of incremental levels water hyacinth (WH) in Para grass (Brachiaria mutica) based on diet nutrient intake, digestibility, and nitrogen retention growing swamp buffaloes. Four male buffaloes 305 ± 8.40 kg were allocated a 4x4 Latin square design. treatments 25, 50, 75, 100% WH (DM basis), replacing (PG) corresponding WH25, WH50, WH75, WH100 tre...

To maintain a calving interval of 13-14 months in buffaloes, successful breeding must take place within 85-115 days after calving. Disturbances during this period due to delay of uterine involution or resumption of estrous activity are likely to prolong the calving interval and reduce the lifetime reproductive and productive efficiency. In this article literature on endocrinological changes in ...

Twenty-eight xylose-utilizing yeast strains were isolated by enrichment culture from 11 samples of feces from the rectum of Murrah buffalo and Swamp buffalo in Thailand. On the basis of their morphological and biochemical characteristics, including sequence analysis of the D1/D2 region of the large-subunit ribosomal RNA gene (LSU rDNA), they were identified as Candida tropicalis (designated as ...
