Describes the origin, distribution, reproductive performance and nutritional characteristics of the camel i.e. Camelus dromedarius, identifying major and minor camel diseases, and assessing the camel's potentials for meat/milk production, transport, ploughing, milling and production of hides and ...


Mukasa-Mugerwa, E.[The camel (Camelus dromedarius): A bibliographical review]The camel (Camelus dromedarius): A bibliographical review

Weaner ewe lambs (92 + 4 days, SD) of the Ethiopian Menz breed (n=115) were used to assess the impact of level of nutrition before and after first lambing on subsequent productivity. Lambs were raised either on pasture grazing only (P) or grazing with low (L), medium (M) or high (H) levels of a c...


Mukasa-Mugerwa, E.Negussie, A.Said, A.N.[Effect of post-weaning level of nutrition on the early reproductive performance and productivity indices of Menz sheep]Effect of post-weaning level of nutrition on the early reproductive performance and productivity indices of Menz sheep

Describes a method for determining the sex and milk protein genotypes (RELPs) of preimplantation stage bovine embryos using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Tests a procedure developed for diagnosing multiple characteristics by genotyping K-casein and B-lactoglobulin in addition to iden...

Analyses data by analysis of variance to determine seasonal effects on reproductive capacity using the General Linear Models (GLM) procedures of the SAS Programme (SAS, 1987). Body weight was used as a covariate. Polynomial regression analysis was done to determine relationships between body and ...

Many efforts to increase milk and meat production by importing temperate breeds into the tropics are constrained by the breeds' lack of adaptation to tropical diseases, biologic and present management stresses. Moreover, feeding regimes developed for temperate breeds also do not suit animals indi...

There are many agroecological zones in sub-Saharan Africa but the pattern of animal production and the major problems associated with it do not generally vary. It is, therefore, appropriate to make a general assessment of the status, limitations and potential of animal production in sub-Saharan A...


Tegegne, AzageLahlou-Kassi, A.Mukasa-Mugerwa, E.[Biotechnology in animal production]Biotechnology in animal production

The effect of birth weight on lamb survival, and the role of stage of pregnant ewe supplementation and weight gain during pregnancy, were investigated for 285 Menz ewes that lambed from 334 mated when averaging 22.8+4.6 (SD) kg body weight and 2.3+0.75 condition score. Ewes either only grazed (C)...


Mukasa-Mugerwa, E.Said, A.N.Lahlou-Kassi, A.Sherington, J.Mutiga, E.R.[Birth weight as a risk factor for perinatal lamb mortality, and the effects of stage of pregnant ewe supplementation and gestation weight gain in Ethiopian Menz sheep]Birth weight as a risk factor for perinatal lamb mortality, and the effects of stage of pregnant ewe supplementation and gestation weight gain in Ethiopian Menz sheep

Reviews aspects of several studies on the reproductive performance of Ethiopian Menz sheep in which plasma progesterone concentrations were monitored. The radioimmunoassay (RTA) technique has been used for determining progesterone concentration in blood and milk (Pope et al 1976; Holdsworth 1980)...

Reproductive performance of 28 East African Zebu cows in Ethiopia were investigated over a period of 217 days. Discussions and data on the length of oestrous cycle, the onset pattern of oestrus, duration of oestrus, mounting activity and vaginal mucus discharge included.
