“…Cytogenetic comparisons indicate a high level of colinearity between goat and cattle chromosomes, and all 30 goat chromosomes have been ordered according to the International System for Chromosome Nomenclature for Bovids 20 . Based on chromosomal colinearity, we used the two cattle genome assemblies (UMD_3.1 and Btau_4.0) to anchor super-scaffolds to goat chromosomes.…”

Congenital sternal ectopia cordis in a Limousin calf – a case report

Recognition and detailed description of malformations and aberrations in domestic animals may be very useful in cognition of the problem and in creating breeding programs. The aim of this study was to describe a rare case of sternal (pectoral) ectopia cordis in a calf. A female calf of the Limousin breed born in Poland in 2011 was subjected to euthanasia because the heart was situated outside the chest. The carcass of the calf was subjected to anatomical examination in which alterations in cardiovascular system and in the structure of the sternum were observed. Cytogenetic studies were performed to find out if the karyotype of the calf was normal. Elongation of the ascending aorta was observed and the pattern of aortic branching was aberrant similarly to that found in dogs, not cattle. The systemic circulation was found to be linked to pulmonary circulation due to persisting large calibre arterial duct. Each of the ventricles had its own cardiac apex and walls of the ventricles manifested a similar width. The atria were slightly altered. A single, short and dilated blood vessel (pulmonary vein) evacuated its content to the left atrium. Pericardium formed no pericardial sac. Radiogram of the sternum demonstrated a ring-resembling shape and 12 (6 pairs) cartilaginous bars of the sternum (sternebrae). A normal female karytotype (60, XX) indicated that this malformation was not caused by an abnormal number of chromosomes (aneuploidy). Cattle, arterial pattern, sternum, chromosomesEctopia cordis represents a developmental error involving the transposition of the heart outside the chest. Depending on the site to which displacement occurs, it is classified as cervical ectopia cordis (upper or lower ectopia), pectoral or sternal ectopia, and abdominal ectopia (Herzog and Wiedeking 1970;Shiran et al. 2010). Moreover, cases of thoracoabdominal and cervico-pectoral ectopia (Hiraga et al. 1990) were also reported.Manifestation of this developmental error has been detected in almost all livestock species (Hamali and Ashrafihelan 2010). However, vast majority of the reports of ectopia cordis concerned cattle (Wyrost and Radek 1982), and it was less frequent in horses (Hamali and Ashrafihelan 2010). Individuals affected by ectopia cordis in cattle died soon after birth or survived even several years, most frequently till maturity (Murakami et al. 1996).In this study we present a rare case of ectopia cordis of the pectoral (or sternal) type in a Limousin heifer. Materials and MethodsHeart displacement (ectopia cordis) outside the chest was described in a newborn female calf of the Limousin breed born in Poland in 2011 on a commercial farm (birth weight 34 kg). The calf was the third offspring (all three female) of the cow and the delivery, similar to the preceding ones, took place by forces of nature. The sire of the calf was one of two bulls, since a harem mating system was followed on the farm. The calf proved to be viable and healthy, with a preserved sucking reflex. The heart, situated out of the chest, manifested a...

ABSTRACT. In order to provide the first cytogenetic data of naturalized and threatened goat breeds from northeastern Brazil, cytogenetic analyses were carried out in individuals of Repartida and Moxotó breeds raised in Bahia and Ceará States. Males and females of both breeds had 2n = 60, with 29 autosomal acrocentric pairs plus the sex chromosome pair. The number of nucleolar organizer region (NOR)-bearing chromosomes ranged from 6 to 8 per metaphase in Moxotó and Repartida goats, respectively. The active NORs in Repartida individuals were located exclusively at the terminal regions of the long arms, as usually detected in Bovidae. Otherwise, Moxotó specimens presented a large autosomal pair with NORs on short arms. GC-rich heterochromatin was detected at the centromeres in both breeds, although polymorphic terminal C-bands were visualized on pair 25 in Moxotó. In addition, GC-rich regions were detected at the terminal regions of the long arms of a single pair in Repartida and of 20 chromosomes in Moxotó goats. The differences in both the number and/or position of Ag-NORs and GC-rich sites between Repartida and Moxotó breeds represent efficient cytogenetic markers that can be used in the identification and conservation of the genetic integrity of each lineage. In spite of the small effective population size of these breeds, chromosomal abnormalities related to drift or inbreeding effects were absent in the samples analyzed.
