This study reports that vitamin A deficiency can cause dermatologic issues like alopecia and orthokeratosis in Angus calves, and affected calves improved with vitamin A supplementation.

This study found that selecting Angus cattle for early puberty reduced their prolactin levels, which may indicate a response to changing day length.

This study found that hair follicle gene expression varies between Angus and Brahman cattle and responds to growth-promoting treatments, which may reflect breed differences in adaptability to cold stress.

This study investigated the genetic basis of coat color variation in cattle using skin transcriptome and whole-genome analyses, identifying the ASIP gene as a significant determinant that is differentially expressed and under strong positive selection in black and brown cattle breeds.

This study found that nasal swab DNA collection was more convenient and yielded higher quality and quantity DNA samples than blood collection in both Angus cattle and yaks.

This study found that integrating breed-specific BOA and SNP-based models helps reveal the genetic factors involved in thermotolerance traits in beef cattle, enhancing insights into thermoregulation and potentially improving cattle's heat resilience.

The Hotz-Celsus surgery successfully fixed inward-turning eyelids in cattle.

This study observed that cattle grazing all-grass or grass-legume pastures showed varying mineral concentrations in hair, blood, urine, and liver, with significant correlations between hair and serum magnesium and copper levels.

In a study conducted on a beef-producing farm, "Deltsid 7.5" was found to be the most effective treatment for psoroptic scab in cattle, eradicating acarian phases and restoring skin and hair by 28 days, outperforming macrocyclic lactone treatments.

This report documents follicular dysplasia with pigmentary changes in two adult cows, contributing to the understanding of this rare condition in cattle.

This study observed that congenital hypotrichosis in crossbred cattle is linked to short, curly, dilute-color hair, potentially due to color dilution mutants in European breeds.

This study found that Swiss cattle exhibiting rat-tail syndrome are heterozygous for genetic variants linked to pigmentation and color dilution, likely due to Holstein introgression in the Simmental breed.

In this study, researchers found that the thickness of various skin layers in Bos indicus cattle varied significantly by body region, with the neck and shoulder being thickest, and that male skin might be more suited for quality leather production compared to female skin.

This study confirms the presence of large structural variations in the genome of Nellore cattle, which may contribute to their environmental adaptation to tropical regions.

This study identified the location of the genetic locus for the slick hair coat trait in cattle on bovine chromosome 20, which may contribute to heat tolerance.

This study identified three candidate genes (CORT, FGF5, and CD36) associated with cold climate adaptation in Yanbian cattle through genome resequencing and comparison with African tropical cattle.

This study found that carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis of cattle hair reflects dietary and farm system differences, offering insights into cattle nutritional ecology and agroecosystem characteristics.

In this study, researchers identified genetic variants in the PCCA and PRLR genes that are significantly associated with hair coat length in Brangus heifers, potentially contributing to more thermotolerant cattle.

This study in Aswan governorate reported that emaciated cattle showed decreased blood cell counts and serum minerals, as well as elevated liver enzymes, possibly associated with parasitic infections.

This research identified two genetic variants that influence the white-spotted coat patterns in Holstein-Friesian cattle, involving regulatory changes in the MITF and KIT genes, confirmed through mouse models, along with possible effects on coat patterns in other cattle breeds.

This research identified 18 significant SNPs and several candidate genes associated with udder conformation traits in Holstein cattle, providing insights into their genetic architecture.

This study suggests that the anogenital distance measure AGD_AC may moderately discriminate the presence of polycystic ovarian syndrome and could be a useful clinical tool.

In this study, a 5-year-old Angus bull experienced systemic granulomatous disease and vasculitis potentially associated with grazing on hairy vetch, but other bulls in the same pasture showed no symptoms, suggesting variability in disease manifestation from similar exposures.

This chapter reviews various fungal skin diseases affecting cattle but does not report new research findings; it focuses on rare, inherited, and congenital conditions like follicular dysplasia and cutaneous asthenia.

This article discusses misconceptions around mineral nutrition in beef cattle and emphasizes that sub-clinical deficiencies or toxicities, rather than overt symptoms, often cause economic losses, but it reports no new findings.

This paper conducts a scientific evaluation of fine hair issues in American bovine hides and suggests measures to minimize this seasonal problem, particularly in winter production.

This study found that older steers had higher hair cortisol concentrations compared to younger steers, suggesting age affects chronic stress biomarkers in beef cattle.

This study found a significant association between AGDAC measurements and the presence of PCOS, suggesting it could be an effective clinical tool in diagnosing the condition and its phenotypes, especially when combined with AMH.

This review discusses autoimmune blistering diseases across species and highlights new treatment efficacy findings and ongoing trials, but it reports no new clinical results.

This report from SRUC VS highlighted a suspected case of Schmallenberg virus infection in a calf born to an imported heifer, noting consistent clinical signs and seroconversion in the dam.
