Article Synopsis
- Ladakhi cattle have developed unique genetic adaptations that allow them to survive in extreme high-altitude conditions, such as low oxygen and extreme cold.
- The study involved whole genome sequencing and various genomic analyses to explore the cattle's genetic structure and adaptation mechanisms.
- Key findings indicate a distinct genetic cluster with significant ancestry from both Bos indicus and Bos taurus, highlighting specific genes associated with hypoxia response, cold adaptation, and energy metabolism.
The study reported in this Research Communication was conducted to estimate genetic parameters for different lactation persistency indices and their association with reproductive traits in Jersey crossbred cattle. Data on lactation traits (part lactation yields and 305-days milk yield) comprising all lactations as well as reproductive traits viz. calving interval, conception rate and gestation length of 378 Jersey crossbred cattle, maintained at National Dairy Research Institute, Kalyani, West Bengal, India, were collected over a period of 35 years (1982-2016).
