Therefore, current study was conducted to investigate the outcomes of OT on numbers of AI per conception, pregnancy rate, embryonic and fetal losses (EFL). For this purpose, Nili-Ravi buffaloes (n=23) were randomly divided into three groups, G1; n=7 (control), G2; n=8 (low dose 10 i.u.) and G3; n=8 (high dose 30 i.u.). The OT injection was given twice daily at morning and evening milking until 154 days post calving. At heat, AI was performed. Ultrasonography and blood sampling were done on days 30, 45 and 60 post AI to monitor pregnancy and progesterone, respectively. Results showed significant (P≤0.05) increase of AI services per conception in G2 & G3 as compared to G1. Furthermore, results revealed that chances of the animals to become pregnant were 0.227 and 0.094 times in low (G2) and high doses (G3) in comparison to control (G1), respectively, and was lower significantly (P≤0.05). Similarly, pregnancy rate was remained unaffected and was non-significant (P>0.05) on day 45 vs day 30. However, it was significantly (P≤0.05) lower on day 60 vs day 30. Overall, pregnancy rate was decreased (P≤0.05) in oxytocin treatments comparable to control. Parity and days in milk had no significant effect on pregnancy rate among treatments (G1, G2 and G3), respectively. Moreover, EFL losses were non-significant (P>0.05) among treatments but losses trend was more in G2 & G3 parallel to G1. Result also showed non-significant (P>0.05) decrease in P4 on days 30 and 45 while significant (P≤0.05) on day 60 in G2 & G3 as compared to G1 among treatment groups. It may be concluded that long term OT injections of both low and high doses cause significant losses in terms of increase in AI services per conception and decrease pregnancy rate with higher EFL in Nili-Ravi buffaloes.","PeriodicalId":14924,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences","volume":"17 1","pages":"40-49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78825362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We reviewed research papers that have been published over the last 20 years on Bangladesh regarding the human-primates conflicts. We also identified primate species are involved in conflict, crop damage preference by primates and local peoples' perceptions towards primates. Our study suggests that three species (Rhesus macaque Macaca mulatta, Capped langur Trachypithecus pileatus, and Common langur Semnopithecus entellus) are mostly involved in the conflict with humans. Crop damage is the main cause of human-primates conflict in Bangladesh. Decreasing of forest covers and increasing of human settlements in and around the forests are responsible for enhancing conflict with the non-human primates. Moreover, people’s aggressive behaviors are responsible to cause primates to conflict with humans. People perception mostly towards the non forested primate species are more aggressive than forested primate, this is due to economic damages to the local people by primates. The progress of research regarding human-primates conflict indicates that after 2011, researchers are more concerned with human-primates conflict research than in or before 2001.

Structural or physiological abnormalities and neonate lethality have negative impacts on breeding populations. Complex vertebral malformation (CVM) and bovine citrullinemia (BC) are heritable congenital syndromes having autosomal recessive basis among cattle breeds worldwide. CVM affected malformed foetuses either get aborted or have evident skeletal deformities upon birth and die during early postnatal period. CVM is caused by a missense substitution (G→T) in uridine diphosphate Nacetylglucosamine transporter encoded by SLC35A3 gene (at position 559). Citrullinemia is a heritable metabolic disorder of urea cycle enzyme argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency which occurs due to a transition (C→T) within exon 5 (codon 86) of ASS1 gene with neurological complications during first week after birth. Both of these fatal disorders have been reported from all over the world in Bos taurus but there is a lack of literature on buffaloes. The present study was carried out to detect CVM and BC carriers among the Pakistani indigenous trans-husbandry water buffalo breed, Nili-Ravi (Bubalus bubalis). In this study, the genetic screening for the target point mutations was carried out using healthy elite buffalo bulls (n=152). Genomic DNA was extracted from the blood and SLC35A3 gene target sequence (281 bp) and ASS1gene target sequence (505 bp) were amplified using PCR. Amplified PCR products were visualized by agarose gel electrophoresis and Sanger sequencing was performed. No carriers were detected among the study sample, however, a novel transversion (c.250C>A) was detected in amplified ASS1 gene fragment. Although, findings of this study confirmed absence of CVM and citrullinemia carriers among the Nili-Ravi buffalo bulls but the presence of carrier animals cannot be ruled out in studies involving larger sample sizes. This genetic screening was carried out for the first time in Pakistani buffaloes which can be used in genetic screening of CVM or BC carrier animals in the future. Further research is recommended in order to enhance the existing data regarding CVM and BC carriers among Bubalus bubalis.","PeriodicalId":14924,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences","volume":"3 1","pages":"619-626"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89250725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data on live body weight and linear body measurements taken from Beetal goats were recorded from six private herds and two government farms of Punjab, Pakistan. Final data file contained 5011 observations of live body weight (LBW) and different body measurements i.e. whither height (WH), body length (BL), chest girth (CG), chest width (CW) and pin bone width (PW). The quantitative traits were recorded by hanging balance (for LBW) and tailor’s tape (for all others) from January 2016 to May 2017. The ages of animals were divided into thirty-seven classes with birth age class declared as 0, monthly age class 1 (1-30 days) and so on up to monthly age class 36 (1051-1080d). The overall birth and 36 month averages of LBW, WH, BL, CG, CW and PW were found 3.34 & 80.21(kg), 33.61 & 92.91, 25.11 & 84.86, 30.96 & 93.30, 8.88 & 26.21 and 4.69 & 14.00 (cm), respectively. All the body measurements showed highly significant effect on LBW of animals at 3 and 21 months of age (P ≤ 0.05). The CG was highly significantly related to LBW in all monthly age classes with the exception of 0, 1, 2 and 7 months (P ≤ 0.05). The PW had non-significant effect on LWB for all monthly age classes with the exception of 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, 21, 32 and 35 months. The WH had highly significant effect on LBW of animals in monthly age classes of 3, 7, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21 and 35. The BL in general showed significant effect on LBW up to 26 months of age. In agreement to regression results, CG had strong positive phenotypic correlation (0.921, P≤0.05) with LBW, followed by BL (0.875, P≤0.05), WH (0.864, P ≤ 0.05), CW (0.777, P ≤ 0.05) and PW (0.725 P ≤ 0.05). The value of R-squared of linear regression model is 0.85. In conclusion, CG, BL, WH, CW and PW may be used for predicting live body weight in Beetal goat in the order of priority. These body measurements may be combined in an index with appropriate weights to more accurately predict live body weight under field conditions. Considering precisely estimated genetic parameters for all these traits, the body measurement traits may also be used for indirect genetic selection for improved growth rate in Beetal goat.","PeriodicalId":14924,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences","volume":"13 1","pages":"25-31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80157663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Present study was aimed to investigate the impact of pesticides and their transformation products (TPs) on the soil microbial community. Soil was treated with isoproturon (IPU), glyphosate (GLYP), thifesulfuron methyl, propyzamide and their TPs at their maximum application rates. After seven weeks, IPLs were extracted from the soil and analysed by HPLC ESI-MS. The method was sensitive and effectively separated different classes of polar lipids on the basis of their head groups. The IPL profiles of IPU, GLYP and PROP treated soil showed significant (p<0.05) variations among the abundance of the polar lipids due to pesticide application. The impact of the pesticides was more obvious in changes induced in the relative amounts of phosphatidyl choline (PC), diacylglycerol trimethylhomoserine (DGTS), phosphatidyl ethanolamine (PE), monomethyl phosphotidyl ethanolamine (PMME), monogalactosyl diacylglycerol (GL) and phosphatidyl glycerol (PG). It was concluded that the botanical pesticides and their TPs can induce changes in soil microbial diversity. Moreover, IPLs can be used as biomarkers for the assessment of the microbial response toward environmental stressors.","PeriodicalId":14924,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences","volume":"86 1","pages":"192-204"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78950426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
