Assessment of physiological adaptation of indigenous and crossbred cattle to hypoxic environment in Ethiopia
High altitude pulmonary hypertension is common in cattle at high altitude areas. The extent of proneness, epidemiology, and genetics of the disease is not, however, known in Ethiopia where a large proportion of the area is at altitudes above 2700 m. To learn about adaptive characteristics of cattle...
