Abstract excerpt

1. Two nucleoside phosphorylase (NP) phenotypes were detected in 844 animals from four distinct genetic groups of Bos taurus and Bos indicus derivation. 2. Bos indicus breeds like Guzerat (Kankrej), Gir, Nellore (Ongole) and Indubrazil presented an NP-H frequency of 1.00, 0.928, 0.776 and 0.754 r...
