    PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT OF FEMALE GONADS AND GENITALS IN SURTI BUFFALO (Bubalus bubalis)
    (AAU, Anand, 1990) Baishya, G.; Vyas, K. N.
    Prenatal gross and histomorphological development; of the female gonad, oviduct, uterus, cervix, vagina and vestibules were studied utilizing 62 Surti buffalo embryos and foetuses ranging in age from 35 to 305 days (1.5 to 102.5 cm CVR). These specimens were divided into seven different groups viz., 35 to 44 days (1.5 to 3.5 cm CVR, group I ), 45 to 75 days (3.7 to 10.3 cm CVR, group II) , 76 to 95 days (10.5 to 14.7 cm CVR, group III ) , 96 to 115 days (15.0 to 19.2 cm CVR, group IV), 116 to 155 days (19.5 to 36.0 cm CVR, group V), 156 to 210 days (36.5 t o 60.5 cm CVR, group VI) and 211 to 305 days (61.0 to 102.5 cm CVR, group VII). An increase in curved crown-rump length (CVR) of the foetuses, was noticed with the advancement of age. The foetal body weight and combined weight of a l l the genitals revealed different values in different age groups. However, the maximum foetal growth and development, were observed from 240 to 305 days (74.0 to 102.5 cm CVR). The growth pattern of developing finale genitals as a whole in relation to foetal growth rate followed no consistent trend from 67 days (8.5 cm CVR) onwards. The relative growth rate decreased with advancing gestational age except from 240 to 305 days during which it was reverse.

    GROSS, BIOMETRIC AND HISTOLOGICAL STUDIES OF PREPUCE AND PENIS WITH REFERENCE TO THE DISTRIBUTION OF PREPUTIAL GLANDS AND RELEASE OF PENILE ADHESIONS IN THE SURTI BUFFALO
    (AAU, Anand, 1986) DAS, RABINDRA KUMAR; Vyas, K. N.
    The gross and biometric study was made on the genital organs of 25 male Surti buffalo calves of 4-11 months in age and six adult Surti buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) of above 4 years in age to measure the lengthand diameter of penis, the length of the glans, the depth (length) of the preputial cavity and the diameter of the preputial orifics. Microscopic observations on H & E stained, Hart’s elastic stained, Alcian blue (pH 2.5) - PAS stained and picric acid stained cryostat and paraffin sections, were made on 6 buffalo calves of 4-11 months of age, 6 buffalo calves of 15-20 months of age and on 6 adult buffalo bulls above 4 years of age.

    STUDY ON STRUCTURAL ASPECTS OF SEVERAL SKIN AND WOOL-FIBRE CHARACTERISTICS MARWARI, PATANWADI AND PATANWADl X RUSSIAN MERINO CROSSES
    (AAU, Anand, 1983) JAGIWALA, PRAKASH S.; Vyas, K. N.
    Present study on skin biopaies, comprised of five different genetic groups of sheep viz., Marwari, Patanwadi, P1 (Patanwadi x Russian (R.) Merine), G2 (F1 x R. Merine) and IS (G2 x G2) maintained at the College Instructional Farm and the Government sheep Farms at Patan and Morvi. Different follicle measurements I.e. follicle depth (Fd), follicle chord (Fe) and follows curvature index (Fc1), were studied in 1/3 mm, razor blade cut, vertical sections stained with 0.25% Nile blue sulphate and counted in Kaiser’s aqueous mountant.

    COMPARATIVE STUDY OF GROSS, HISTOLOGICAL, HISTOCHEMICAL AND BIOMECHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF LOCOMOTORY APPARATUS OF THE BUFFALO AND THE OX
    (AAU, Anand, 1996) DUBAL, SUBHASH C.; Vyas, K. N.
    The present study was carried out to investigate and compare the anatomical and the biomechanical characteristics of bones and muscles of forelimbs and hindlimbs of male of Surti buffalo and Kankrej ox (5 to 10 months old calves and 5 years or more old adults, six in number, in each age group of each species). Study on walking gait characteristics were made from the videographs of six live adult animals of each species. The forelimbs of the buffalo were found to bear significantly (P < 0.05) more body weight (57.89 ± 0.82 %) than those of the ox (55.96 ± 1.05 % ). The cortical thickness, bone density and elastic modulus of the bones of the forelimbs, did not differ significantly (P < 0.05) from those of the hindlimbs of the animals of both the species within the same age groups. The pooled mean values of the cortical thickness,the bone density and the elastic modulus of the bones of the calves, were significantly (P < 0.05) lower (0.18 ± 0.001 cm; 2281.27 ± 14.21 - 2 kg/cm and 118.37 ± 0.11 kg/cm2, respectively) than those of the adult animals (0.54 ± 0.002 cm, 2510.54 ± 9.28 kg/cm2 and 166.33 ± 0.17 kg/cm2 , respectively). The ultimate compressive and tensile stresses, and ttie strength and stiffness economics, increased significantly with the advancement of the age. Most of the gross anatomical and the biomechanical characteristics of the bones and the muscles studied, increased significantly (P < 0.05) from the calfhood to the adulthood in both the species.

    STUDY ON HISTOLOGICAL AND BIOMETRICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MEDULLATED AND NON-MEDULLATED FOLLICLES IN MARWADI AND PATANWADI SHEEP
    (AAU, Anand, 1989) DUBAL, S. C.; Vyas, K. N.
    The present study was carried out on the skin biopsies, taken from l e f t mid-side region of 30 males and 44 females of Marwadi and 55 males and 45 females of Patanwadi sheep at the age of 4-5 months (lambs) and again from the same animals at the age of 15-18 months (adults) to investigate the histological and biometrical characteristics of medullated and non-medullated follicles. The biopsies were preserved in 10 % neutral buffered formalin and vertical sections of 1/3 mm in thickness were cut with the help of razor blade and stained with 0.25 % aqueous solution of Nile blue sulphate to study the follicle depth (Fd), follicle chord (Fc) and follicle curvature index (Fci). The observations were made ci under projection micixjscope (Lanometer) . From the remaining skin, vertical sections measuring 10-12 µm in thickness, were cut on ciyostat microtome and stained with Harris' Haematoxylin and Eosin stain and Altmann's acid fuchsin methyl green stain for histology and micrometry of the other follicle characteristics. The primary follicles were more deep-seated than the secondary follicles. The angle between the shaft and bulb of medullated follicle from the ental side, was more than that of the non-medullated follicle in both the breeds. The follicles of Marwadi had larger angle of bulb than those of Patanwadi sheep. The primary follicles were mostly medullated. The medullation occured above the junction between the shaft and the bulb.
