Three dam breeds, the indigenous Ankole and zebu, and the Boran from Kenya were mated to Boran Angus and Red Poll sires to investigate the relationship between dam body weight and progeny performance. Under artificial insemination, at least 10% fewer cows were detected on heat than under natural ...

Heat tolerance of West African Dwarf Shorthorn and N'Dama cattle in Ghana are investigated. Data on the magnitude and direction of the heat tolerance coefficients (HTC), the nature of the HTC variation by the mean, standard deviation and coefficient of variation included. Hightlights some of the ...

Factors influencing reproductive performance of Angoni, Barotse, and Boran under ranching conditions are examined. Five years reproduction records of 675 Angoni, 731 Barotse and 815 Boran were analysed. Calving percentages were 82.5, 78.1 and 75.4 for Angoni, Barotse and Boran, respectively. Year...

Background: The history of African indigenous cattle and their adaptation to environmental and human selection pressure is at the root of their remarkable diversity. Characterization of this diversity is an essential step towards understanding the genomic basis of productivity and adaptation to s...

Cost-effective high-density (HD) genotypes of livestock species can be obtained by genotyping a proportion of the population using a HD panel and the remainder using a cheaper low-density panel, and then imputing the missing genotypes that are not directly assayed in the low-density panel. The ef...

Large datasets are often not amenable to analysis using traditional single-step approaches. Here, our general objective was to apply imputation techniques, principal component analysis (PCA), elastic net and generalized linear models to a large dataset in a systematic approach to extract the most...

We investigated the perceived impact of malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) to pastoralists in Isinya Division, a wildlife dispersal area of Nairobi National Park, and used a range of participatory epidemiology methodologies. We compared the relative importance, incidence and impact of MCF compared t...
