Expressional dynamics of minisatellite 33.15 tagged spermatozoal transcriptome in Bubalus bubalis.

5 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Transcriptionally quiescent spermatozoa have been established to be a repository of mRNA coding for several functionally essential cellular proteins. This entourage of mRNA is envisaged to be involved in post-fertilization and early ... Read more...

Genetic diversity and bottleneck analysis of Nagpuri buffalo breed of India based on microsatellite data.

29 Jun 2009 In this study, 25 heterologous bovine microsatellite markers have been used for the assessment of genetic diversity in Nagpuri buffalo, an important breed of Central India. For this, 48 DNA samples of unrelated individuals of Nagpuri buffalo were ... Read more...

Detection and screening of bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency in Pakistan using molecular methods.

29 Apr 2009 Bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (BLAD) is an autosomal recessive disease. Affected animals die because of extreme susceptibility to infections caused by the lack of a membrane glycoprotein called the leukocyte integrin beta-2 subunit of CD18. ... Read more...
