Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is one of the most potent orexigenic factors which can produce diverse effects on behaviour and other physiological functions and is highly conserved in evolution. The present study was aimed to identify and associate SNPs in the 5' UTR and exon2 region of the NPY gene with reproduction and production traits in Kankrej cattle of Indian origin. Three mutations in the 5'-UTR region and one mutation in the exon2 region of the NPY gene were identified by PCR-SSCP and PCR-RFLP, respectively, followed by sequencing.

A classical polyherbal formulation namely was assessed for its anti-pathogenic potential against five different pathogenic bacteria. Virulence of four of them towards the model host was attenuated (by 18-45%) owing to pre-treatment with Formulation (TF) (≤20 µg/ml). TF could also exert significant therapeutic effect on worms already infected with (MTCC 2656), (MTCC 97) or (MTCC 737).
