Water determines the life quality of pigs, however, adequate measures need to be taken in order to reduce wastage while the animals are drinking. The current study hypothesized and examined a suitable position at which to fix the nipple drinker to provide sufficient drinking water to pigs while also limiting water wastage. Additionally, this study describes both the drinking pattern and drinking duration of pigs. The height to place the drinker was calculated based on the neck movement of the pigs (neck movement angle, NMA). According to the NMA, 3 independent treatments were investigated with angles placed at clockwise 30°, …

Investigation Of The Myocardial Damage Due To Acute Anemia In A Rabbit Model Of Acutenormovolemic Anemia, Kenan Çağri Tümer, Haydar Özdemi̇r, Hati̇ce Eröksüz

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Myocardial damage and increased circulating cardiac troponin I (cTnI) concentrations have been shown in various diseases that cause anemia in animals. Whether the acute anemia that occurs during these diseases directly contributes to myocardial damage and to the release of cTnI to the circulation still remains unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of acute anemia on myocardial damage and serum cTnI concentration using experimentally-induced acute normovolemic anemia. New Zealand rabbits were randomly separated into 2 groups: an acute anemia group (AG, n = 8) and a control group (CG, n = 6). To induce acute …

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Osteopontin gene (OPN) is located in the quantitative trait loci (QTL) for milk production traits in bovine chromosome 6. In the present study the impact of cytosine to thymine transition in the intron-4 of OPN gene (g.8514C > T) on milk production traits was analysed in the Holstein Friesian crossbred cattle of Kerala. Genomic DNA was isolated and a fragment of 290 bp enclosing the polymorphic site was amplified and genotyped by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) using endonuclease, BSeN1. The genetic variants were distributed according to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The T allele was found to be the major one (T/0.76, C/0.24) …

Investigation Of The Scid Mutant Allele In Turkish Arabian Horses Reared In Some Privatefarms Of The Eskişehir Region In Turkey, Mustafa Doğan, Muhammet Kaya

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

There are several known hereditary diseases in Arabian horses. Many studies have been conducted on molecular diagnostic methods of the mutations that cause these hereditary defects in horses. A five-base deletion in the short arm (ECA9p12) of the equine chromosome 9, starting with codon 9480, which occurs in the catalytic subunit gene of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNAPKcs) results in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) hereditary disorder. SCID is an autosomal recessive disorder wherein the immune system of the affected foal is very weak. Purebred Turkish Arabian horses reared in the Eskişehir region have contributed greatly to Turkish Arabian horse breeding …

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The reproductive trait of livestock is part of the most important economic traits in animal husbandry. FecB is a major gene for multiplet traits in sheep. However, studies on FecB in lamb are not clear and comprehensive. The 1-month ewe lamb of F1 generation cross between Booroola Merino sheep and Xinji fine wool sheep was superovulated. Transcriptome sequencing was performed on ovarian granulosa cells of the FecB gene wild homozygous type (++ genotype) and FecB gene mutant heterozygous type (B+ genotype). We found 306 DEGs in the ovarian granulosa cells of the two genotype (170 genes more highly in B+ …
