With the help of routine and GTG methods of analysis of metaphase plates of chromosomes, it was established that in the studied animals the diploid chromosome set was equal to fifty chromosomes (2n=50), which consisted of 5 pairs of meta- and submetacentric and 19 pairs of acrocentric autosomes and one pair (XX) or (XY) sex chromosomes. The total number of chromosome arms (FN) was 60, which correspond to animals of the water buffalo species (Bubalus bubalis), a subspecies of the river buffalo (B. b. Bubalis). Cytogenetic control revealed wide intraspecies limits of spontaneous somatic mutagenesis: absence of constitutive chromosomal disorders; the frequency of metaphases with aneuploidy, the average value (M±m) of which was equal to 10.5±0.13%, polyploidy (M±m=0.7±0.25%), asynchronous separation of the centromeric regions of chromosomes - (M±m=5.3±2.00), chromosomal breaks (M±m=0.7±0.24%), the proportion of cells with micronuclei (M±m=2.5±0.39‰), binucleated cells (M±m=2.6±0.32‰) and mitotic index (M±m=4.8±0.65‰).

The evaluation was done with different parameters i.e., serum and whey antibody titers, somatic cell count, milk fat %, milk protein, milk yield, vaccine efficacy, cost-benefit analysis, and colony count. There was a peak of geometric mean antibody titer 291 and 58 in LSAV while its climax 363 and 90 in DSAV at 2 and 6 months of study. In whey this level almost remained the same in both groups. In B1 and B2, somatic cell count kept on decreasing from day zero to the end of study. There was a non-significant difference in milk yield and fat percentage between the 2 groups. Milk protein concentration was significantly different between these groups and was better in B1 than B2. The surf field mastitis test-based quarter point prevalence decreased at 180 days in LASV and DSAV. In California mastitis test based, a significant decreased value was shown in both groups. Pre-vaccination and post-vaccination colony count of S. aureus was more in LSAV than in DSAV.

The present study was planned to evaluate larvicidal activity of few methods for physical and biological control for integarated management of Haematobia exigua flies. Out of four bacterial bio-control agents evaluated by in-vitro assay and Probit analysis, two bacteria i. e. Bacillus thuringiensis var israelensis and Bacillus thuringiensis var kurstaki showed excellent larvicidal activity against H. exigua with LC50 value of 134 and 135 mg per liter of water respectively. Whereas, other two bacteria i. e. Bacillus weihenstephanensis WSBC and KBAB4 failed to show desired larvicidal activity. It can be concluded that B ti and B tk have future as effective bacterial agents (BCAs) in the control and integrated management of buffalo and horn fly. An experiment was conducted in the laboratory and on field for judging the efficacy of a physical method of tightly covering dung pats with polythene sheet for control of larvae of H. exigua. The laboratory result showed only 14.73% larvae were survived and developed per 100 gm of the faeces in the pot covered with polythene sheet as against significantly higher number 78.33% in the control group. During field trial, average larval count from dung pits before the experiment was 86.33 per 250 gm of faeces and it has been significantly reduced to 11.80 after covered with polythene sheets for two weeks. It indicated that physical method of covering the dung pits works immensely and thus can be inducted in IPM program as one of the effective physical control alternatives.","PeriodicalId":9393,"journal":{"name":"Buffalo Bulletin","volume":"60 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139130781","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the flatter lands around Hanoi and more heavily populated areas in some of the provinces to north of the capital for example, the gasoline powered tractor is replacing the labour of the water buffalo. Additionally, as the population demands more meat in its diet, water buffalo are now raised for human consumption, often in pens, rather than for power needed for agricultural cultivation. Indeed, as in the case of Chiem Hoa district in the Tuyen Quang province, what was once the plough has become a marketable and commodified brand of meat. Stated otherwise, an animal that was once common-place, interacted with daily, prized for its intelligence, decried for its stubbornness, and was considered by many across the countryside as another working member of the family, now seems somewhat exotic or has been reduced to simply another source of consumable protein. This chapter centres the water buffalo as a living framework to explore the complex social, cultural, environmental, and economic histories of the people of Chiem Hoa district in the Tuyen Quang province and by inference rural Vietnam. While the trope of economic progression dominates the academic literatures of rural development, this study focuses on structural changes in the economy notwithstanding. This present that agriculture in Vietnam is mechanizing and industrializing, and as it does generations of shared history between rural people and their most valued animal is being altered forever.","PeriodicalId":9393,"journal":{"name":"Buffalo Bulletin","volume":"125 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139132878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The studies of reproductive tract were conducted in buffalo cows (n=8; BCS=3.38) and heifers (n=8; BCS=3.25).
