The study was carried out in 53 horse farms in Afyonkarahisar, Eskişehir, Kütahya, and Uşak provinces. The measurements, observations and declarations of breeders were recorded on the questioner forms. Furthermore, a fecal parasitic examination was carried out. The breeds of horse were Arab, Thoroughbred, local and crosses. The percentages of boxed and tied barns were 60.4 and 39.6%. The average temperature and humidity in the shelters were 20.7°C and 38.6%, the mean values for carbondioxide, oxygen, and ammonia were measured as 848.0, 20.9, and 5.0 ppm respectively. Although antiparasitic applications were reported in the visited farms, 61.7% of the horses were found to have parasites in the parasitic examination. 90.6% of the interviewed personnel claimed that they were experienced in horse breeding but only 3.8% had knowledge about animal health and welfare. In conclusion, horse breeding in Inner West Anatolia is insufficient in terms of windows and chimney openings in shelters, shelter enrichment, paddock areas and exercise, dental care, antiparasitic applications, and trained personnel for animal health and welfare; while box dimensions, feeding standards, grooming, hoof care, tail docking, foal care and transport applications were in accordance with ideal standards.","PeriodicalId":402330,"journal":{"name":"Livestock Studies","volume":"252 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121250907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study population consisted of 40 Arabian mares. The breeding systems of horses at the stud farm and hippodrome, the physical dimensions of their boxes, agonistic behaviors, stereotypic behaviors, and intra/inter-species interactions were examined and evaluated comparatively by considering their physiological stress and behavioral responses. The salivary cortisol analysis was performed at rest on the horses at the stud farm and pre-post race on the horses at the Hippodrome. Statistical difference was not found between the stereotypic and agonistic behaviors of the horses but the longer-term effects of the absence of intraspecies interaction should be investigated. There was no statistical difference in the resting horse's saliva cortisol value housed at the stud farm (0,84 ng/ml) and hippodrome (0,52 ng/ml). It was determined that the pre-race cortisol value (0,52 ng/ml) was significantly lower than the post-race (3,82 ng/ml) value. In order for the horses to have a long and healthy sports life, the welfare of the horses should be structured by considering the training, behavior, and management systems with a holistic approach, and intra-species interactions should not be overlooked.","PeriodicalId":402330,"journal":{"name":"Livestock Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123021709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is to evaluate the superovulator response and embryo recovery rates after the superovulation protocol applied to the SAR breed cattle. \u0000Fort this purpose, 10 donors were selected from the conservation herd in Eastern Mediterranean Agricultural Research Institute. FSH was performed to donors in decreasing doses twice daily over a 4 day period. Before uterine flushing, the ovaries were examined by ultrasound and the structures on them were recorded in order to determine the superovulation response. Each cornu uteri was flushed with foley catheters using a 3-way Y catheter. In the evaluation of embryo recovery, embryos were classified as transferable and non-transferable embryos . In South Anatolian Red cattle, the response to superovulation was found as average 7.8 corpus luteum and 2.8 anovulatory follicule for 10 donors which performed superovulation protocols. After uterine flushing, 5 UFOs, 3 non-transferable embryos and 2 transferable embryos were obtained from 10 animals. \u0000As a result, superovulation response and embryo recovery of SAR cattle was tried to be evaluated. In this study, although the superovulation response was good, the reason for the low embryo recovery rate may be due to the low reproductive performance in SAR cattle. And also, it has been concluded that the hormonal imbalance of these aggressive animals and the difficulties that occur during uterine flushing affect embryo recovery. It was thought that more studies should be done, different superovulation protocols should be tried and OPU technic should be evaluated in order to increase the rate of transferable embryos from SAR cattle. In addition, it was concluded that different techniques should be tried while performing uterine flushing procedures.","PeriodicalId":402330,"journal":{"name":"Livestock Studies","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133013124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four different methods were evaluated: (Method 1) ABLUP with all available phenotypes and pedigree; (Method 2) GBLUP with SNP genotypes and phenotypes of genotyped cows; (Method 3) single-step GBLUP with SNP genotypes, phenotypes of genotyped cows and all pedigree and (Method 4) single-step GBLUP with SNP genotypes, all phenotypes of both genotyped and nongenotyped cows and all pedigree. SNP based methods also used different genomic relationship matrices (GRMs) formed by different approaches: vanRaden, Astle, Yang and Endelman. The simulated dataset replicates a common dairy cattle population. \u0000A significant increase in reliability of prediction was observed in ss-GBLUP with all phenotypes and pedigree beside genotyped cows. This increase was apparent for both first lactation milk yield (LMY) and milk fat percentage (Fat%).

The quantitative analysis of the As, Cd and Pb levels of the samples was analyzed by ICP-MS. Arsenic and Pb residues were found in all of the collected samples, while Cd residues were found in 13 (86. 67%) of the collected samples. In the samples with heavy metal residues; the mean value ± standard deviation for As, Cd, and Pb were found as 0.1475±0.1060 mg/kg, 0.0382±0.0079 mg/kg and 0.1944±0.1074 mg/kg respectively. The maximum tolerable limit in cattle feed is 2 mg/kg for As, 5 mg/kg for Pb, and for Cd in cattle feed is 1 mg/kg for Cd according to an official announcement (2014/11) of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry Turkey. The results of this study showed that detected As, Cd and Pb levels in cattle feeds were below the tolerable limit. Therefore, it is suggested that the heavy metal pollution in terms of As, Cd, and Pb in feed does not pose a risk for cattle farming in Kırıkkale province.","PeriodicalId":402330,"journal":{"name":"Livestock Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130744391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
