“…Mandya sheep is considered as a best meat breed with respect to its conformation (Acharya, 1982). Its meat is regarded as the most nutritious and high quality mutton in human diets at national and international spectrum of sheep products (Dinakar et al, 2019). These animals are predominantly distributed in Mandya and adjacent districts of Karnataka.…”

Background: The mutations in POU1F1 gene result in deficiency of GH, PRL and TSH-â expression and thus have an indirect effect on development and reproduction. The present study was conducted to determine and compare the polymorphism of POU1F1 gene in Mandya and NARI-Suwarna Sheep. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 50 each of Mandya and NARI-Suwarna sheep and genomic DNA was isolated following Miller’s high salt method. PCR-RFLP analysis was performed for exon 3 and exon 4 regions of POU1F1 gene, whereas, PCR-SSCP analysis was performed for exon 6 region of POU1F1 gene. Result: The PCR products of sizes 365 bp, 508 bp and 501 bp for exon 3, exon 4 and exon 6 regions of POU1F1 gene, respectively were successfully amplified. PCR-RFLP analysis of exon 3 and exon 4 regions of POU1F1 gene with AluI and EcoRI restriction enzymes, respectively revealed monomorphism in both Mandya and NARI-Suwarna sheep. The PCR-SSCP analysis of exon 6 region of POU1F1 gene revealed two patterns, P1 and P2 with frequencies of 98 and 2 per cent, respectively in Mandya sheep and 90 and 10 per cent, respectively in NARI-Suwarna sheep. The alignment of P1 and P2 pattern sequences revealed two SNPs (109 G greater than C and 112 T greater than A) in Mandya sheep, whereas 3 SNPs (218 T greater than G, 225 G greater than A and 264 T greater than A) were revealed in NARI-Suwarna sheep. Polymorphism was successfully established at exon 6 region of POU1F1 gene.

“…In India livestock acts as safeguard during the subsistence crisis (Kitalyi et al 2005) [3] Sheep husbandry occupies a prominent place in the farming systems due to their ability to convert resources unusable by man, with limited land or water providing 'year round employment' and 'sustainable income' (Dinakar et al 2019) [1] . Sheep farming entreprise has inherent qualities such as early maturity, ability to thrive even under harsh environment and, act as insurance during crop failure (Dixit et al 1995) [2] .…”

The present study scale was developed to measure the level of crisis perception of sheep farmers about sheep farming. Initially 70 items / statements on eight dimensions of crisis were selected to measure the crisis of sheep farmers. Based on 40 jury opinions the relevancy weightage score for each item was worked out. Relevancy weightage score of 0.70 and above were finally include in the study. A total of 25 items which fulfilled criteria were selected for study. Reliability test was done by using split-half method co-efficient of correlation was found to be 0.86 which was found to be significant at 0.01 level of probability indicating high internal consistency of the scale. Hence scale developed was highly reliable to measure the perceived extent of crisis in sheep farming.
