1.3 Vitamins, Hormones and Growth Stimulating, substances: Sources, functions requirement and inter-relationship with minerals
1.4 Advances in Ruminant Nutrition-Dairy Cattle: Nutrients and their metabolism with reference to milk production and its composition, nutrient requirements for calves, heifers, dry and milking cow and buffaloes. Limitations of various feeding systems.
1.5 Advances in Non-Ruminant Nutrition-Swine-Nutrients and their metabolism with reference to poulty,meat and egg production, Nutrients requirements and feed formulation and broiled at different ages
1.6 Advances in Non-Ruminant Nutrition-Swine-Nutrients and their metabolism with special reference to growth and quality of meat production, Nutrient requirement and feed formulation for baby-growing and finishing pigs
1.7 Advances in Applied Animal nutrition-A critical review and evolution of feeding experiment digestibility and balance studies. Feeding standards and measures of food energy. Nutrition requirements for growth, maintenance and production. Balances rations
2.Animal Physiology
2.1 Growth and Animal Production: rental and postnatal growth, maturation, growth curves, measures of growth, factors affecting growth, conformation , body composition ,meat quality
2.2 Milk Production ad Reproduction and Digestion: Current status of hormonal control mammary development, milk secreting and milk ejection, Male and Female reproductions organ their components and function. Digestive organs their functions
2.3 Environmental physiology: Physiological relations and their regulation; mechanisms of adaption environmental factors and regulatory mechanism involved in animal behavior, methods controlling climatic stress
3. Livestock Production and management
3.1 Commercial Dairy Farming-Comparison of dairy farming in India with advances countries Dairying under mixed farming and as a specialized farming , economic dairy farming, Starting of dairy farm. Capital and land requirement, organization of the dairy farm
Procurement of goods;oppotrtunities in dairy farming, factors determining the efficiency dairy animal .Herd recording, budgeting, cost of milk production; pricing policy; Personnel Management. Developing Practical and Economic ratio for dairy cattle; supply of greens throughout the year; field and fodder requirements of Dairy Farm, Feeding regimes for day and young stock and bulls heifers and breeding animals, new trends in feeding young and adult stock; Feeding records.
3.2 Commercial meat, egg and wool production: Development of practical and economic rations for sheep. Goat’s pigs, rabbits and poultry. Supply of greens, fodder, feeding regiments for younf and mature stock. New trends in enhancing production and management, Capital and land requirements and socio-economic concept.
3.3 Feeding and management of animals under drought, loot and other natural calamities
4. Genetics and Animal Breeding: Mitosis and Meiosis;Mendelian inheritance; deviations to Mendelian genetics; Expression of genes; Linkage and crossing over;Sex determination , sex influenced and sex limited characters; Blood groups and polymorphism; Chromosome aberrations; Gene and its structure;DNA as a genetic material; Genetic code and protein synthesis; Recombinant DNA technology,Mutations,types of mutations, methods for detecting mutations and mutation rate
4.1 Population Genetics Applied to Animal Breeding: quantitative Vs. qualitative traits; Hardy Weinberg Law; Population Vs. individual; Gene and genotypic frequency; Forces changing gene frequency; Random drift and small population; Theory of path coefficient; inbreeding , methods of estimating inbreeding coefficient, systems of inbreeding; Effective population size; Breeding value, estimation of breeding calue. Dominance and epistemic deviation; Partitioning of carination Genotype X environment correlation and genotype X environment interaction; Role of multiple measurements; Resemblance between relatives
4.2 Breeding System:Heritability,repeatability and genetic and phenotypic correlations, their methods of estimation and precision of estimates ;Aids to selection and their relative merits; Individual , pedigree , family and within family selection; Progeny testing; Methods of selection; Construction of selection indices and their uses; Comparative evolution of genetic gains through various selection methods; Indirect selection and Correlated response; Inbreeding, upgrading, cross-breeding and synthesis of breeds; Crossing of inbred lines for commercial production; Selection for general and specific combining ability; Breeding for threshold character.
