A monster is an abnormally formed fetus with congenital anomaly. Fetal monsters are common cause of dystocia in bovines (Shukla et al. 2007). The conjoined twin a rare disorder occurring in monozygotic twin pregnancies (Roberts 2004). Duplication and fusion of varying degree is seen in the conjoined monsters twins but anterior duplication is more common in swine and ruminants (Arthur et al. 2001). Anterior duplication of head may be either monocephalus or dicephalus. Monocephalus monster are having partial duplication of frontal region, nose and mouth are called diprosopus or double face. Monocephalus Diprosopus monsters have single head with two faces. (Roberts 2004). Such types of monsters most of the time cause dystocia and has to be removed by laparohysterotomy (Sharma et al. 2010, Gupta et al. 2011).Keywords

Obstetrical conditions affect the future fertility of the animals and thereby increasing inter calving interval. The data was recorded in 411 buffaloes from Dadwal area (District Hamirpur) of Himachal Pradesh of last three years. The incidence of various obstetrical conditions like antepartum prolapse, postpartum prolapse, retained placenta, dystocia and puerperal metritis was 56.45%, 9.98%, 16.78%, 13.14%, 3.65%, respectively. However, Parity does not affect the incidence of obstetrical conditions recorded in buffaloes.Keywords

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of body condition score (BCS) and back fat thickness on resumption of ovarian cyclicity in Jersey cross bred cows. Thirty four (N = 34) cows having normal parturition were monitored for recording the body condition score on the day of calving and divided into two groups i.e. low BCS (n = 15) i.e. <2.5 and high BCS (n = 19) i.e. ≥2.5. For monitoring the back fat thickness, trans-abdominal ultrasonography of thurl area was done on the day of calving. Trans-rectal ultrasonography was done on a weekly interval to adjudge the resumption of ovarian cyclicity i.e. first ovulation post-partum. As a part of results, low BCS cows had a significantly lower back fat thickness (9.92 ± 0.48 mm; P < 0.05) as compared to high BCS cows (12.14 ± 0.82 mm). Similarly, low BCS cows had a significantly longer interval (42.47 ± 2.14 days; P < 0.05) to first post-partum ovulation in comparison to high BCS cows (32.42 ± 1.82 days). In conclusion, metabolic status of cows had an important role in resumption of ovarian cyclicity after parturition.Keywords

Research was carried out to determine the study of gene action and combining ability in rice. The material consisted of F2 population of 33 crosses developed by crossing genotypes with three testers. The crosses were made at RWRC, Malan during kharif 2018 and during kharif 2019 the (33) F2 materials along with parental lines (11) + testers (3) were evaluated in RBD with three replications at RWRC, Malan. Magnitude of dominance genetic variance σ2D was found to be higher than that of additive genetic variance σ2A for plant height, total tillers/plant, effective tillers/plant, panicle length, spikelets/panicle, grains/panicle, spikelet fertility, grain yield/plant, 1000-grain weight. Average degree of dominance was observed more than one for all the traits studied except days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, grain length, grain breadth and L:B ratio.Keywords

Arare case of hydrallantois in a goat was presented in Teaching Veterinary Clinical complex with the history of full term pregnancy. Animal was in second lactation with the history of normal parturition in previous kidding. Animal having symptoms of anorexia, respiratory distress, bilaterally distended abdomen, reluctance to stand and move was reported. Animal was showing the signs of straining for 6-7 hours. One non-viable fetus was removed by caesarean section.Keywords
