Abstract | ||||
THIS WORK aimed to evaluate effect of body condition score on semen characteristics of buffalo bulls and identify the genetic polymorphisms of prolactin (PRL) gene as bases for selection of bulls with good breeding value.The study was performed on 60 buffalo bulls aged 2-8 years. The bulls were classified according to body condition score (BCS) into two groups. The first group of bulls was between 2 to | ||||
