On the Origin of Indonesian Cattle

Abstract: BackgroundTwo bovine species contribute to the Indonesian livestock, zebu (Bos indicus) and banteng (Bos javanicus), respectively. Although male hybrid offspring of these species is not fertile, Indonesian cattle breeds are supposed to be of mixed species origin. However, this has not been documented and is so far only supported by preliminary molecular analysis.Methods and FindingsAnalysis of mitochondrial, Y-chromosomal and microsatellite DNA showed a banteng introgression of 10–16% in Indonesian zebu breeds… Show more

“…The gayal population from Yunnan in South China combines I1 and T3 mtDNA with paternal lineages from the gayal (Bos frontalis) or wild gaur (Bos gaurus) [36]. In Indonesia, zebu introgressed into local populations of domestic banteng (Bos javanicus), which have partially retained their original javacine origin in their mtDNA [37]. Maternal yak (Bos grunniens) introgression has been observed in Nepal [38] and Qinghai [39].…”

“…Bali cattle are native of Indonesia and derived from domesticated banteng, Bos javanicus, Bos banteng (Nijman et al, 2003;Mohamad et al, 2009). They are one of the main pedestals of beef cattle, and are exploited as a source of labor to plow the land in Indonesian rural areas.…”

“…Notably, they are also raised in other tropical areas, such as Malaysia (Sukanata 2008), and the Cobourg Peninsula, Northern Territory, Australia (Hodges 1997). This breed is the most suitable for intensive village-based management, as its deer-like temperament allows it to be used for plowing rice paddy fields (Mohamad et al 2009). The four major cattle resource areas in Indonesia include South Sulawesi, West and East Nusa Tenggara (NTB and NTT), and Lampung provinces (Talib 2002;Martojo 2012).…”

“…The four major cattle resource areas in Indonesia include South Sulawesi, West and East Nusa Tenggara (NTB and NTT), and Lampung provinces (Talib 2002;Martojo 2012). Due to the incidence and susceptibility of Bali cattle to Jembrana and MCF (malignant catarrhal fever), respectively, Bali cattle are unable to be raised together with sheep in Bali and Java islands (Mohamad et al 2009). The Indonesian Government has placed a high priority and policy on developing the beef cattle population in the eastern islands of Indonesia in order to achieve its beef self sufficiency program.…”
