Anthropogenic movement results in hybridisation in impala in southern Africa

Miller, Susan M.; Moeller, Carl-Heinz; Harper, Cindy Kim; Bloomer, Paulette (Springer, 2020-08)

Hybridisation caused by anthropogenic movements of animals is a conservation concern. Black-faced impala (Aepyceros melampus petersi) are endemic to north-western Namibia and south-western Angola and are geographically ...
The carrier prevalence of severe combined immunodeficiency, lavender foal syndrome and cerebellar abiotrophy in Arabian horses in South Africa

Tarr, Carolynne Jane; Thompson, P.N. (Peter N.); Guthrie, Alan John; Harper, Cindy Kim (Wiley, 2014-07)

REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY : The carrier prevalence of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), lavender foal syndrome (LFS) and cerebellar abiotrophy (CA) in Arabian foals in South Africawas determined in order to ...
Cyclic neutropenia in a basset hound

Koster, Liza Sally; Harper, Cindy Kim; Goddard, Amelia (BMJ Publishing Group, 2015)

A 6 month old, male basset hound was referred for intermittent malaise, and pyrexia that repeated every 10-11 days. Sequential blood counts and bone marrow aspirates demonstrated severe neutropaenia and increased myeloid ...
Evaluation of microsatellite markers for populations studies and forensic identification of African lions (Panthera leo)

Miller, Susan M.; Harper, Cindy Kim; Bloomer, Paulette; Hofmeyr, Jennifer; Funston, Paul J. (Oxford University Press, 2014-11)

The South African lion (Panthera leo) population is highly fragmented. One third of its wild lions occur in small (<1000 km2) reserves. These lions were reintroduced from other areas of the species’ historical range. ...
Evaluation of microsatellites for common ungulates in the South African wildlife industry

Miller, Susan M.; Clarke, Amy B.; Bloomer, Paulette; Guthrie, Alan John; Harper, Cindy Kim (Springer, 2016-09)

Wildlife is a multi-million dollar industry in South Africa ranging from intensively farmed animals on small properties to free-roaming animals in large functional ecosystems. Specific concerns surrounding the ...
Friends and family : a software program for identification of unrelated individuals from molecular marker data

De Jager, G.J. (Deon); Swarts, Petrus; Harper, Cindy Kim; Bloomer, Paulette (Wiley, 2017-11)

The identification of related and unrelated individuals from molecular marker data is often difficult, particularly when no pedigree information is available and the data set is large. High levels of relatedness or inbreeding ...
Genetic rescue of an isolated African lion population

Miller, Susan M.; Druce, Dave J.; Dalton, Desire L.; Harper, Cindy Kim; Kotze, Antoinette; Packer, Craig; Slotow, Rob; Bloomer, Paulette (Springer, 2020-02)

Fragmented wildlife populations are challenged by limited gene flow that can lead to significant inbreeding. The lion (Panthera leo) population in South Africa’s Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park (HiP) started from a small founder ...
Missense mutation in the ligand-binding domain of the horse androgen receptor gene in a thoroughbred family with inherited 64,XY (SRY+) disorder of sex development

Bolzon, Colin; Joone, C.J. (Carolynne); Schulman, M.L. (Martin); Harper, Cindy Kim; Villagómez, Daniel A.F.; King, W. Allan; Révay, Tamas (Karger, 2016)

Disorders of sex development (DSD) have long been documented in domestic animal species including horses. However, there is only a single report of an androgen receptor mutation causative of such a DSD syndrome in a horse ...
Molecular sexing of African rhinoceros

Peppin, Lindsay; McEwing, Ross; Ogden, Rob; Hermes, Robert; Harper, Cindy Kim; Guthrie, Alan John; Carvalho, Gary R. (Springer, 2009-04)

We report the development of a fast and reliable PCR-based method for sex identification of African Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum and Diceros bicornis) that could easily be incorporated into fluorescent short tandem ...
Prediction of the optimal time for insemination using frozen-thawed semen in a multi-sire insemination trial in bitches

Steckler, Daniela; Nothling, Johan Oliviette; Harper, Cindy Kim (Elsevier, 2013-11)

The aims of the study were to determine which of Days 5, 6 or 7 after the blood plasma progesterone concentration (PPC) of bitches first reached 6–9 nmol/L (Day 0) yield the highest fertility and whether day of insemination ...
Single base-pair deletion in ASIP exon 3 associated with recessive black phenotype in impala (Aepyceros melampus)

Miller, Susan M.; Guthrie, Alan John; Harper, Cindy Kim (Wiley, 2016-08)

No abstract is available.
Specifying and sustaining pigmentation patterns in domestic and wild cats

Kaelin, Christopher B.; Xu, Xiao; Hong, Lewis Z.; David, Victor A.; McGowan, Kelly A.; Schmidt-Küntzel, Anne; Roelke, Melody E.; Pino, Javier; Pontius, Joan; Cooper, Gregory M.; Manuel, Hermogenes; Swanson, William F.; Marker, Laurie; Harper, Cindy Kim; Van Dyk, Ann; Yue, Bisong; Mullikin, James C.; Warren, Wesley C.; Eizirik, Eduardo; Kos, Lidia; O’Brien, Stephen J.; Barsh, Gregory S.; Menotti-Raymond, Marilyn (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2012-09)

Color markings among felid species display both a remarkable diversity and a common underlying periodicity. A similar range of patterns within domestic cats suggests a conserved mechanism whose appearance can be altered ...
