comparison of bos taurus-bos indicus breed crosses with straightbred bos indicus breeds of cattle for maternal and individual traits 1 Angus, Boran and Red Poll sires were mated to Ankole, Boran and small East African Zebu (Zebu) females to produce the cows characterized in this study, whi.....
This work established that production in some crossbred individuals was sufficiently high to compete with existing Bos taurus breeds, and that selection proved to be effective in eliminating the tendency found in Bos indicus cattle to fail to let down milk after removal of their offspring. These ...

Chinese cattle were derived from Bos taurus and Bos indicus, and several breeds presumably are of hybrid origin, but the evolution of CNV regions (CNVRs) has not yet been examined in this context. Here, we of CNVRs, mtDNA D-loop sequence variation, and Y-chromosomal single nucleotide ...
Brazil has a very large beef production industry, which grazes a range of cattle on pasture with breeds selected dependent upon region and climatic conditions (Ferraz & Felício, 2010). Bos indicus or Bos indicus cross breeds are commonly raised for beef in the tropical areas of Brazil, with...

The effects of 4 estrus synchronization treatments on intervals to and synchrony of estrus and ovulation, on timing of the preovulatory LH surge and associated changes in plasma progesterone, LH, FSH, and 17β-estradiol (E2) were investigated in 48 Bos indicus cows. Treatment 1 consisted of 2...
KIEFFER & CARTWRIGHT (1968) described the Y chromosome of Brahman and Santa Gertrudis breeds as acrocentric. The karyotype of a presumptive pure-bred Bos indicus breed was recorded in studies of Sahiwal cattle in Australia by HALNAN (1971) and in India, together with Red Sindhi, by GU,PTA ...
