Mrode, Raphael A.Ojango, Julie M.K.Okeyo Mwai, AllyMwacharo, Joram M.[Genomic selection and use of molecular tools in breeding programs for indigenous and crossbred cattle in developing countries: Current status and future prospects]Genomic selection and use of molecular tools in breeding programs for indigenous and crossbred cattle in developing countries: Current status and future prospects

Butana and Kenana are two types of zebu cattle found in Sudan. They are unique amongst African indigenous zebu cattle because of their high milk production. Aiming to understand their genome structure, we genotyped 25 individuals from each breed using the Illumina BovineHD Genotyping BeadChip. Ge...


Bahbahani, HussainSalim, B.Almathen, F.Al Enezi, F.Mwacharo, Joram M.Hanotte, Olivier H.[Signatures of positive selection in African Butana and Kenana dairy zebu cattle]Signatures of positive selection in African Butana and Kenana dairy zebu cattle

Rhipicephalus appendiculatus is an important tick vector of several pathogens and parasitizes domestic and wild animals across eastern and southern Africa. However, its inherent genetic variation and population structure is poorly understood. To investigate whether mammalian host species, geograp...


Kanduma, E.G.Mwacharo, Joram M.Mwaura, S.Njuguna, J.N.Nzuki, I.Kinyanjui, P.W.Githaka, Naftaly W.Heyne, H.Hanotte, Olivier H.Skilton, Robert A.Bishop, Richard P.[Multi-locus genotyping reveals absence of genetic structure in field populations of the brown ear tick (Rhipicephalus appendiculatus) in Kenya]Multi-locus genotyping reveals absence of genetic structure in field populations of the brown ear tick (Rhipicephalus appendiculatus) in Kenya

Assessment of genetic diversity is a prerequisite for the management and conservation of animal genetic resources. Appropriate design of breeding programmes is therefore impossible for breeds that have not been adequately characterized either phenotypically and/or genetically. Phenotypic characte...
