Livestock and poultry play a significant role in human nutrition by converting agricultural by-
products into high-quality proteins. To meet the growing demand for safe animal protein …

Microsatellites (simple sequence repeats, SSRs) are ubiquitously distributed in almost all
known genomes. Here, the first investigation was designed to examine the SSRs and …

The population size of Bactrian camels is smaller than dromedary, and they are distributed
in cold and mountain regions and are also at the risk of extinction in some countries such as …

Morphologically similar to Synechococcus, a large number of Parasynechococcus strains
were misclassified, resulting in extreme underestimation of their genetic diversity. In this …

Water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), belonging to the Bovidae family, is an economically
important animal as it is the major source of milk, meat, and drought in numerous countries …

Polydactyly was recorded before 100 BCE and attracted widespread interest because of its
relationship to limb health and ancestral traits in horses. However, the underlying reasons …

We identified and characterized 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers suitable for routine
testing (three in the MHC class I sub-region, four in MHC class II and four in the MHC class III …

Introduction: The aim of the present study was to identify the SNPs located in the genes that
are associated with lipid and glucose metabolism in the genome of Dromedary, domestic …

Abstract The Dromedarian camel, Camelus dromedarius, is native to the Arabian Peninsula,
including the Sultanate of Oman. These camels are used for food, milk, as well as show and …
