A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the prevalence and risk factors of Cryptosporidium infection and identify species of the parasite in cattle in central Ethiopia. Faecal samples, collected from 392 dairy cattle managed under intensive and extensive production system, were analyze...

Genome-wide scan reveals divergent selection among taurine and zebu cattle populations from different regions
A comparative study of age at first calving in European and zebu cattle. Various influencing factors, and their effects on other productivity parameters are described. Lack of optimum feeding and management are constraints to reducing age at first calving. There is the need to reduce this in zebu...

Age at first calving: A short review of published studies in Euorpean and Zebu cattle
Sheko is the only surviving taurine of the Abyssinian region, and is in danger ofextinction mainly due to interbreeding with neighboring Zebu breeds and scarcityof pure Sheko breeding bulls. This study was undertaken to study current statusof Sheko cattle breed and husbandry practices in southwes...

Carcass characters for 365 male castrated cattle of the Africander, Angoni, Barotse and Boran breeds, and the reciprocal crossbreds of the latter three were reported. In each of the two year-of-birth groups, different slaughter-age/management regimes were used. For all carcass characters except t...

Live weights from birth to 3.5 years are reported for beef cattle reared under ranching conditions in Zambia. The 809 cattle were purebred Africanders, Angonis, Barotses and Improved Borans and the reciprocal crossbreds of the latter three breeds born in 2 years. All animals born in the 1st year ...
