Nineteen microsatellite markers were used to investigate the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships and herd structure of Ugandan Ankole cattle. A total of 304 animals from 8 herds in Mbarara District were characterised. Across all loci, 200 alleles were observed. A high mean number of all...

Survival of indigenous livestock of Kenya could be threatened by existing programmes that promote exotic breed importation or indiscriminate crossbreeding. Thus, there is a need for proper description of existing genetic resources with an aim of determining their Development, utilisation and cons...

Survival of indigenous goats in Kenya is at risk: due to exotic breed importation and indiscriminate crossbreeding. Phenotypic description of goats with an aim of determining their improvement, utilization and conservation is important. Phenotypic characteristics of 139 East African Goats were re...

Phenotypeic and genetic trends of calving interval (CI), nine months corrected weaning weight (9MOWT) and calf weight, weaned/cow/year (cow index), were estimated on data from three ranches (Mogwooni, Galana and Oljorai) located in semi arid areas of Kenya. The number of records per herd varied b...

A new approach for capacity building, "training the trainers", addressing university faculty and other NARS scientists in developing countries, has been implemented to strengthen the sustainable use of Animal Genetic Resources (AnGR) through improved research and teaching. The project is carried ...

A total of 26,233 calving records from three commercial ranches: Mogwooni, Galana and O'ljorai; located in high altitude, humid and low altitude, coastal, and medium altitude rangelands of Kenya, were available for the study over periods between 10 and 30 years. The traits studied were: age at fi...
