Abstract

ABSTRACT A morphometric characterization study was conducted using purebred Baoulé cattle and two crossbreds’ populations in the southwestern region of Burkina-Faso. A total of 421 cattle, including 266 crossbreds from the department of Kampti and Loropeni and 155 purebred Baoulé, from the department of Bouroum-Bouroum were measured for quantitative and qualitative traits. The quantitative traits were analyzed by fitting the linear model including genotype-location, sex, age and all two-way interactions. The chi square test was performed for qualitative traits. The results provide evidence for difference between purebred and crossbred populations, and among crossbreds for all traits. The genotype-location effect showed that facial length, distance between horn tips, ear length and chest width differed between purebred and crossbred populations. For qualitative traits, coat color and horn shape showed large variation between Baoulé and crossbreds. These results will serve as basis for further characterization, conservation and improvement strategies for purebred and crossbred populations.

布基纳法索纯种和杂交baoul牛的形态特征

摘要对布基纳法索西南部地区纯种baoul牛和两个杂交牛种群进行了形态计量学特征研究。共测定了421头牛的数量和质量性状，其中包括来自坎普蒂和洛罗佩尼省的266头杂交牛和来自布卢姆-布卢姆省的155头纯种baoul牛。通过拟合包括基因型-位置、性别、年龄和所有双向相互作用在内的线性模型对数量性状进行分析。对质量性状进行卡方检验。结果证明了纯种和杂交群体之间的差异，以及杂交群体之间所有性状的差异。基因型定位效应表明，纯种和杂交群体的面长、角尖间距、耳长和胸宽存在差异。在质量性状上，被毛色和角形在杂交品种间差异较大。这些结果将为纯种和杂交群体的进一步鉴定、保护和改良策略提供依据。
