An exploratory survey was conducted at Simien mountains national park (SMNP) and bordering districts to assess the genetic introgressions between walia ibex (C. walie) and domestic goats (Capra hircus) in Ethiopia by studying breeding strategies, production and grazing systems. About 96.9% of the...

Community-based sheep breeding programs (CBBPs) were established in Ethiopia since 2010. Improved rams from CBBPs need to be disseminated. However, there is a risk of transmitting reproductive diseases to other community flocks. To investigate this a cross-sectional study was conducted in 2015/16...

First lactation 305 days milk yield (FL305DMY) records (2032) on Sahiwal cows, maintained at 3 different farms in India were analyzed to estimate the impact of direct additive genetic, maternal additive genetic and cow’s permanent environmental effects on milk yield and to compare sire model (BLU...

Small ruminants in general and sheep in particular are important investments in the highlands of
Ethiopia. Genetic and environmental improvements offer an opportunity to increase production
from existing animal resources. Development of effective genetic evaluation and improvement
programs requir...

The data on 60 Ethiopian Boran and 428 Boran-Friesian crosses spread over 15 years (1990-2004) were used lo predict first lactation milk yield (FLYD) based on earlier expressed traits using multiple regression analysis and principal components analysis. In the prediction of FLYD in Ethiopian Bora...
