Desi Cows Farming In India: A large number of people in India do animal husbandry. Earning from animal husbandry also becomes substantial. Cow’s milk is considered very important in terms of health. Every state government is also promoting cow rearing. Now new research has come out regarding Go. It was revealed in the research that many qualities are found more in the indigenous cows raised in India than other cows. In this new research, many more interesting facts about desi cows have come to the fore.
Genome sequencing of four indigenous cows
According to media reports, the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (ISER) did research on cows. Four indigenous breeds of cows were included in the research. In these, research was done on Kasaragod Bona, Kasaragod Kapila, Vechur and Angel. Similar surprising facts came to the fore in the genome sequencing of all the four cows. This research has been published in the preprint server BioRXIV.
What is special found in desi cows?
Dr. Vineet K Sharma, Associate Professor of Biological Sciences, ICER Bhopal, told that specific genes have been identified in indigenous breeds of Indian cows. In these, sequence and structural differences have been observed compared to the genes of cattle of western countries. Research has revealed that indigenous cows of Indian breed can lead a better life even in tropical conditions. In these, the ability to fight against diseases has also been seen more than other species.
what would be the advantage
Researchers say that this type of genome sequencing can help in improving the breeding and management of cows. Milk productivity will get a boost in cattle business of India. Research revealed that indigenous cows also have more capacity to digest poor quality food. This species is more effective in fighting against diseases. This will encourage indigenous cow rearing in India.
what is genome structure
Gene is the deep memory of any person or animal. The account of the merits and demerits of the ancestors is hidden in the genes. The composition of small units like genes is called genome. The information about the development, growth and other types of organisms are recorded in the genes only. Right information about fighting a disease can be obtained from genes only.
