Meat production is the most important trait in the breeding objectives of sheep production in East Africa. The aim of this study was to investigate breed differences in live weight, conformation, carcass traits and economic values for meat production among Red Maasai and Dorper sheep and their cr...

Sheep has successfully adapted to the extreme high-altitude Himalayan region. To identify genes underlying such adaptation, we genotyped genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of four major sheep breeds living at different altitudes in Nepal and downloaded SNP array data from addition...

The effects of birth weight, sex, twinning, parity of dam and dry season on mortality rates of lambs were studied between births and weaning at 20 weeks in a flock of East African Blackhead sheep. The mean birth weight of non-surviving lambs was lower than those of surviving lambs. Singles from g...

The influence of age and parturition interval of West African Dwarf (WAD) ewes on birth weight, serum immunoglobin (Ig) concentration and mortality rates in the neonatal lambs were examined. Age of ewe significantly influenced birth weight of lambs with effect being more pronounced on twin lambs (P
