“…All the autosomes were found to be acrocentric, X-chromosome was observed to be the longest acrocentric and the Y-chromosome was sub metacentric, which was confirmed by various indices (Arms Ratio, Centromeric Index and Morphological Index). Similar findings with regard to number and morphology of autosomes were reported in many Indian goat breeds like Kanniadu (Saravanan et al, 2006), Berari (Kasabe et al, 2009), Mahabubnagar (Ekambaram et al, 2011), Karnataka local goats (Jayashree, 2014), Sangamneri (Bhagat et al, 2014), Osmanabadi and Boer bucks (Kokani et al, 2018) and in native Black Bengal goats (Banani et al, 2018). In contradiction to the present findings, the autosomes were reported as telocentric in Tehran goats (Khavary, 1973), Korean local goats (Yeo, 1984) and in Ganjam and Black Bengal goats (Pattnayak and Patro, 1986).…”
