Background: The present study of the length-weight relationship and condition factors of seven shrimp species on the southeast coast of Tamil Nadu between July (2022) and February (2023) also estimated the coefficient of determination (r2). Methods: For shrimp species, the length-weight relationship shows some species have significant positive coefficients which have a determination by (r2 greater than 0.5) like Penaeus indicus, Penaeus mergiuensis, Penaeus canaliculatus, Penaeus latisulcatus, Penaeus monodon, some species have shown negative as (r2 greater than 0.5) value like Penaeus japonicas and Penaeus semisulcatus. Result: All shrimp species have heterogeneity evident in intercept (a). The growth exponent (b) varied between 0.278 and 2.289 and it significantly (p=0.05) deviated from the value of less than 3 which denoted negative allometric growth for all Penaeus shrimp species.

Background: Taxonomic ambiguity still exists in ariid catfish species identification. Morphological similarities occur in ariid catfishes which lead to misidentification of the species. To overcome this taxonomic ambiguity osteology is one of the effective integrated taxonomic tools for species discrimination. From this study, we provide an osteotaxonomic key for the field identification of ariid catfish species. Methods: The fish samples were cleaned and washed with the freshwater put into the sample for 1% potassium hydroxide solution (KOH). Then fish samples were allowed for alkali digestion of muscle in the solution for 24-48 hours depending on the condition of the specimen. After the completion of the muscle digestion process, Alizarin S dye was used for staining the fish bones. Result: The present paper deals with a comparative study of the five Ariidae family species discussed, they are Arius arius (Hamilton,1822), Plicofollis layardi (Gunther,1866), Netuma thalassina (Ruppell, 1837), Nemapteryx caelata (Valenciennes, 1840) and Osteogeneiosus militaris (Linnaeus, 1758). The osteological portions used for this study like premaxillary, dentary, neurocranium, otolith, vertebral and caudal bone. The aforementioned osteological portions made the important primitive characters that will be used to differentiate the species.

Background: Reproductive failures due to abortion in buffaloes are a major cause of concern to livestock owners that cause economic losses. Brucellosis (bacterial disease) and infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (viral disease), both infectious diseases in buffaloes are implicated in abortions in India. Methods: The investigated buffalo farm experienced a few cases of abortions in pregnant animals in the late trimester. Blood samples were collected aseptically from individual animals without anticoagulants. After clotting of the blood, extracted serum samples were clarified and tested in Rose Bengal test and indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the serological diagnosis of brucellosis and infectious bovine rhinotracheitis. Result: Out of 147 buffalo serum samples tested by using the Rose Bengal test, a total of 27 buffalo serum samples (18.36%) tested positive for the presence of agglutinating antibodies against Brucella species. None of the tested serum samples had detectable levels of antibodies against the infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus in an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Background: The objective of this research is to find out how much of an impact adding camel follicular fluid (CFF) to camel oocytes in vitro maturation (IVM) medium has on getting meiosis back on track. Methods: Ovaries from camels were obtained at the central slaughterhouse in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Oocytes were extracted from follicles ranging in size from 2 to 8 mm. Camel oocytes were cultivated in a maturation medium containing varying amounts of camel follicular fluid: 0% (control), 2.5% and 5% for a duration of 32-36 hours. Result: According to the result, the maturation rate of oocytes was considerably (p.05) lower in the 2.5% CFF and 5% CFF groups compared to the control group. It is advised that greater CFF concentrations of camel oocytes be added to the IVM culture in order to improve nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation and boost oocyte competency.

Background: The feed supplements to ruminant animals have gained great attention of nutritionists to improve feed utilization, growth and reproductive performances during the past decades. Methods: The animals feed supplements were classified into nutrient and non-nutrient feed additives. They include substances, micro-organisms or preparations. The feed supplements and their purified constituents were fed to give animals’ nutritional requirements and to improve the quality of feed and animal products. Result: Changes in animals’ production, reproduction and therapeutic performances have been confirmed over feeding supplements. Numerous purified components include β-carotene, antioxidant and others. The supplements change feed intake, nutrient digestibility and rumen fermentation products. Such enhancements in feed utilization and growth performances resulted in improvements of oocytes, embryos and feti quality. Furthermore, blood corpuscles and plasma parameters, immunity and therapeutic performances were altered due to feeding supplements. Hence, the current review article was designed to collect, consolidate and discuss the effects of feed supplements on productive, reproductive and therapeutic performances on mammalian species.

Background: Leptospirosis is one of the important zoonotic diseases prevailing in most tropical countries worldwide. The disease is endemic in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India and affects humans and animals. Due to its zoonotic importance, continuous monitoring and surveillance are important. The present work was conducted to determine the seroprevalence and distribution of different serovars with respect to different ecoregions in cattle and goats. Methods: A total of 100 samples each from cattle and buffalo were tested by using a microscopic agglutination test (MAT) using a panel of 12 serogroups as antigens. Samples showing a titer of more than 1:40 were considered positive. Result: Leptospirosis is one of the important zoonotic diseases with high endemicity reported from the A and N islands. The present study reports the prevalence of multiple serovars in cattle and goats, however, there have not many changes in terms of the prevalence of serovars is concerned. Regular monitoring and surveillance of livestock are very much important and necessary to study the disease prevalence scenario in changing climatic conditions in these islands.

Background: Ecotones are areas of overlap between different ecosystems, referred to as ‘junction zones or tension belts’, that harbor a distinct collection of organisms. Tor putitora and Neolissochilus hexagonolepis are two threatened Mahseer species which requires urgent conservation attention. Bhalukpung area in the River Jia Bhoroli is an ideal example of an ecotone, as its ecosystem transforms from resembling a foothill river ecosystem to a river floodplain ecosystem. However, studies on threatened fish populations in ecotone zones, which could be used as conservation sites, are lacking. Therefore, the present study aims to generate firsthand information on the relationship between the populations of these threatened fish and their foothill-floodplain river interface ecotone in the Jia Bhoroli River. Methods: The data on water quality, topography was collected for a period of one year from January to December, 2021 along with fish samples. The mahseer species were identified and catch per unit effort (CPUE) was also calculated. Result: Identification of the collected mahseer fish as T. putitora and N. hexagonolepis were confirmed using both morphometric as well as molecular tools. CPUE was found to be 4.3-12.6 for N. hexagonolepis and 4.1-10.3 for T. putitora. The ecotone zone was found to have a thriving mahseer population and ecotones are believed to play a crucial role as a diverse food source for the fish. Conserving Bhalukpong as a designated ecotone site in the Jia Bhoroli River as a fish sanctuary can help to protect their populations. Further research that encompasses all aspects of ecology is recommended for the future.
背景:生态带是不同生态系统之间的重叠区域,被称为 "交界区或张力带",其中蕴藏着一系列独特的生物。Tor putitora和Neolissochilus hexagonolepis是两种濒临灭绝的马嘶鱼,急需得到保护。贾布罗里河(River Jia Bhoroli)的巴鲁克蓬(Bhalukpung)地区是一个理想的生态过渡区范例,其生态系统从类似山麓河流生态系统转变为河流洪泛平原生态系统。然而,目前还缺乏对生态过渡带中受威胁鱼类种群的研究,而这些鱼类种群可作为保护地点。因此,本研究旨在获得有关嘉博罗里河这些濒危鱼类种群与其山麓-洪泛平原河流界面生态区之间关系的第一手资料。研究方法收集了 2021 年 1 月至 12 月为期一年的水质和地形数据以及鱼类样本。对马鲛鱼种进行了鉴定,并计算了单位努力量渔获量(CPUE)。结果:利用形态计量学和分子学工具确认了所采集的马氏鱼为 T. putitora 和 N. hexagonolepis。发现 N. hexagonolepis 的 CPUE 为 4.3-12.6,T. putitora 为 4.1-10.3。研究发现,生态区有大量的马氏鱼,生态区被认为是马氏鱼的重要食物来源。将 Bhalukpong 指定为佳波罗里河的生态区,并将其作为鱼类保护区,有助于保护鱼类种群。建议今后进一步开展包括生态学各个方面的研究。

Background: Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a complex condition that may be associated with sepsis or may progress with trauma, burns, and major surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the systemic inflammatory response syndrome and survival rate in traumatized cats. Methods: The study material consisted of 34(22.66%) cats diagnosed with SIRS among 150 cats who were traumatized by falling from a height. Cats were monitored and vital signs such as pulse, respiration, arterial blood pressure, oxygen saturation and body temperature were recorded. In addition, laboratory whole blood and biochemical tests were performed. In the treatment of cats with SIRS, it was aimed to provide circulatory support and support measures to keep the animal alive. Result: 27(79.41%) cats with SIRS died due to lung failure or multi-organ failure and 7(20.58%) cats survived. The prognosis in SIRS patients with trauma depends on the patient’s response to aggressive treatment and supportive care. SIRS has a high mortality rate. Common causes of death include cardiovascular collapse, multi-organ dysfunction and acute lung injury.

Background: Neonatal calf diarrhoea, a complex illness, continues to be the leading cause of neonatal calf deaths. The complex pathophysiology of infectious calf diarrhoea results in severe losses to the dairy sector, either directly via mortality or indirectly through the costs of prophylaxis and slowed growth in infected calves. Neonatal calf diarrhoea during the first month of life causes between 80 to 85 per cent of all deaths in India. Methods: A total 137 cattle calve diarrhea samples were collected from calves that show clinical signs of diarrhea. Swabs of the rectum were taken directly from diarrhoeic calves and collected in sterile test tubes. They were then immediately transported to the laboratory for the isolation of E. coli. Result: A total 64 E. coli isolates were detected and identified from samples via biochemical and molecular assays employing PCR targeting the E. coli specific 16s rRNA gene. The result of antibiotic sensitivity of 64 isolated strains of E. coli to 15 antimicrobial drugs shows highest sensitivity towards antibiotic gentamycin (68.75%) followed by sulfadiazine and co-trimoxazole (39.06), ciprofloxacin (32.81%) and highest resistance against ampicillin (87.5%) followed by ceftriaxone (82.813%), ceftazidime plus clav (81.25%). There is the variation in the expression of the AMR genes in the isolated E. coli strains. The detection rate of AMR gene blaTEM was highest 90% and that of aadA was the lowest (0%). The other AMR genes blaCTX-M, blaSHV, sul1 and tetA showing 50%, 20%, 50% and 30%.

Result: A total 64 E. coli isolates were detected and identified from samples via biochemical and molecular assays employing PCR targeting the E. coli specific 16s rRNA gene. The result of antibiotic sensitivity of 64 isolated strains of E. coli to 15 antimicrobial drugs shows highest sensitivity towards antibiotic gentamycin (68.75%) followed by sulfadiazine and co-trimoxazole (39.06), ciprofloxacin (32.81%) and highest resistance against ampicillin (87.5%) followed by ceftriaxone (82.813%), ceftazidime plus clav (81.25%). There is the variation in the expression of the AMR genes in the isolated E. coli strains. The detection rate of AMR gene blaTEM was highest 90% and that of aadA was the lowest (0%). The other AMR genes blaCTX-M, blaSHV, sul1 and tetA showing 50%, 20%, 50% and 30%.\u0000","PeriodicalId":13410,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Animal Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139607006","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}
Background: Biological traits are mainly determined by genotype and are also influenced by environmental factors, especially in the process of adapting to different environments, corresponding phenotypic variations may occur. Even for the same animal, there may be some morphological differences due to its long-term adaptation to different habitat environments. Molar teeth are the direct contact point between animals and the environment, which are of great significance in the study of animal adaptability to different environments. Methods: To explore the relationship between the morphology of the molars (upper molars and lower molars) of tree shrews (Tupaia belangeri) and environmental variations in different regions, we applied geometric morphometric methods to measure the morphological characteristics of the molars of T. belangeri in 12 different regions of China (Hainan, Daxin, Leye, Xingyi, Xichang, Hekou, Kunming, Mengla, Dali, Tengchong, Pianma, Laboratory bred F1 generation). Result: The results showed that the morphological variations of the lower molars of T. belangeri in 12 different regions were larger, which was more suitable and reference valuable for studying the morphological differences among different geographical populations. The Principal component analysis showed that T. belangeri from 12 regions were clustered into 4 branches: Hainan was clustered into one branch, Daxin was clustered into one branch, Pianma and Tengchong were clustered into one branch and Leye, Xingyi, Hekou, Kunming, Xichang, Mengla, Dali and laboratory bred F1 generation were clustered into one branch. The thin plate spline analysis showed that deformations in the upper molars were mostly concentrated in the alveolar and dental margins. The deformations of the lower molars were mainly concentrated in the alveolar, marginal and occlusal surfaces. Multidimensional scaling showed that there were differences in molars morphology among the 12 locations, with significant variations in Hainan, Daxin, Pianma and Tengchong regions, reflecting the adaptive variation of T. belangeri to different ecological environments. The present results can provide a certain basis for the study of phenotypic adaptation in T. belangeri.
背景:生物性状主要由基因型决定,同时也受环境因素的影响,特别是在适应不同环境的过程中,会出现相应的表型变异。即使是同一种动物,由于长期适应不同的生境环境,也会出现一些形态差异。臼齿是动物与环境的直接接触点,对研究动物对不同环境的适应性具有重要意义。研究方法为了探讨树鼩臼齿(上臼齿和下臼齿)形态与不同地区环境变化的关系,我们采用几何形态计量学方法测定了中国12个不同地区(海南、大新、乐业、兴义、西昌、河口、昆明、勐腊、大理、腾冲、片马、实验室培育的F1代)树鼩臼齿的形态特征。结果结果表明,12个不同地区的白鱀豚下臼齿形态变异较大,更适合研究不同地理种群间的形态差异,具有参考价值。主成分分析表明,12个地区的白龙鱼聚为4个分支:海南聚为一个分支,大新聚为一个分支,片马和腾冲聚为一个分支,乐业、兴义、河口、昆明、西昌、勐腊、大理和实验室培育的 F1 代聚为一个分支。薄板样条分析表明,上磨牙的变形主要集中在牙槽和牙缘。下磨牙的变形主要集中在牙槽面、边缘和咬合面。多维标度显示,12个地点的臼齿形态存在差异,海南、大新、片马和腾冲地区差异显著,反映了白鱀豚对不同生态环境的适应性变异。本研究结果可为白鱀豚的表型适应性研究提供一定的依据。
