Assessment of breed, age and body condition score on hematology, blood chemistry and fecal parasitic load of indigenous bulls in Adamawa State, Nigeria
並列摘要
The blood chemistry of most common bull cattle breeds were randomly collected and assessed. Significant (P＜0.01) breed variation on packed cell volume (PCV) was observed. Adamawa Gudali (AG) had highest (55.29±0.77%) PCV value followed by Rahaji (RJ) (46.83±0.80%) then Sokoto Gudali (SG) (46.19±0.78%) while Bunaji had the least (43.59±0.74%). Significant (P＜ 0.001) breed differences were also depicted on mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC). Highest (40.35±0.62×10^(15) FL) MCV was observed on AG followed by RJ (36.57±0.65×10^(15) FL) while similar values were recorded on BJ (33.95±0.6×10^(15)×FL) and SG (34.27±0.63×10^(15)FL). On MCHC, AG had the highest (25.94 ± 0.55g/dl) while similar values were observed on BJ (29.32±0.54g/dl), SG (28.75±0.56) and RJ (27.62±0.58g/dl). Significant (P＜0.001) breed difference was pronounced on fecal parasitic egg count (FPEC) indicating SG with highest (18.21±0.68) value followed by RJ (16.35±0.71) while Ag (9.57±0.67) and BJ (10.21±0.66) had similar least values. Significant (P＜0.001) age group difference was observed on PCV with similar highest values observed on age groups 1.5 to 2 years (48.45±0.66%),2_(/2)^1-3years(50.28±0.80%) and 3.5 to 4 years while age group ≥4years had least (45.76±0.66%) value. Significant (P＜0.001) age group on FPEC with age group 2.5 to 3 years had highest (15.50±0.70) followed by age group 3.5 to 4 years (14.62±0.58) while similar least values were recorded on age groups 1.5 to 2 years (9.56±1.18) and ≥4 years (10.82±0.58). Significant (P＜0.001) BCS difference was observed on PCV with highest (50.78±0.85%) value on BCS_5 followed by BCS_4 (49.18±0.60%) while similar values were recorded on BSC_2 (43.36±1.19%) and BCS_3 (45.48±0.72%). Significant (P＜0.001) breed effect on FPEC was evident showing BCS_2 with highest (21.83±0.05) egg count followed BCS_3 (14.95±0.064) then BCS^4 (11.60±0.53), BCS_5 had the least (9.39±0.75).
