A total of 902 plasma samples from the Rambouillet, Targhee, Columbia, Lincoln, and Suffolk breeds of sheep were analyzed for transferrin type by disc electrophoresis. Six transferrin types, Tf[superscript A], Tf[superscript B], Tf[superscript C], Tf[superscript p], Tf[superscript E], and Tf[superscript P], were found in the Rambouillet, Targhee, and Columbia breeds...
This investigation for the first time reports information on the
correlation of various forms and ratios of nicotinamide nucleotide
coenzymes in the liver tissue and endocrine glands weight with
various production traits. Fifty-five inbred and line cross beef bulls
raised under standard management conditions and slaughtered at 1000
lbs. body...
Research has yielded valuable information about the inheritance of body weight in many mammals. The results with one species may not be directly applicable to another species, but since the results do not contradict genetic theory, one must assume that the same general rules apply to all species.
