Summarises the critical steps for designing a comprehensive breeding system. Breed (genotype) comparison and utilization are discussed with ref. to breeding policy, environment and management systems, genetic parameters, purebreds, F1 crosses, rotational crossing, and F2 and F3 generations of bre...

The zebu cattle "breeds" of eastern and southern Africa are broadly classified into "large" and "small" types. Boran, Karamajong and Sudanese Zebu are examples of the former, while those of the latter include Angoni, Nkedi and Nandi. The habitat of the large zebu is drier than that of the small t...

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...

Sub-Saharan Africa is home to an estimated 147 million goats representing about 80 indigenous breeds or strains distributed across all agro-ecological zones and ruminant livestock production systems. Goats are particularly important in marginal agricultural land, especially in arid and semi-arid ...

The effect of genotype, lactation and season on the periparturient rise in faecal egg counts in Ethiopian highland ewes: preliminary observations. A study was carried out at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) Debre Berhan Research Station Between May 1992 and January 1995 to co...

The genetic diversity within indigenous livestock breeds of countries like Ethiopia results from the diverse ways in which these resources have been used to support human livelihoods and their ability to cop with the specific environments in which they have been kept. The genes and gene combinati...
