POPULATION SURVEY AND GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF MUTURU CATTLE IN NIGERIA A Research Proposal Submitted to the Livestock Production Research Committee, Institute of Food Security, Environmental Resources and Agricultural Research

INTRODUCTION Muturu: Bos taurus brachyceros Trypanotolerant Endangered: Dwindling population – decreased from 57,000 in 1977 to 38,000 in 1984 Adapted to sedentary farming Biodiversity enhancement through conservation Best bet for cattle production in Mandate States Study aimed at understanding population dynamics (Number, Herd Structure, etc.)

Objectives of study To undertake a detailed population survey of Muturu cattle breed in South and North Central regions of Nigeria. To obtain information on some reproductive traits of economic importance. To determine the incidence of trypanosome infection in the breed. To undertake genetic characterization of the breed using blood protein variants.

METHODOLOGY Muturu population survey Haematological Analysis Prevalence of trypanosome infection Genomics studies Statistical analysis
