    Application of Modern Techniques in Animal Production Sector for Human and Animal Welfare
    (2020) Ali, Wajid; Ali, Moazam; Ahmad, Muhammad; Dilawar, Sadia; Firdous, Asia; Afzal, Anam
    In this epoch, the tremendous increase in the world population accounts for the continuous supply offoodstuff. According to the FAO report, the global population is probable to cross the 9 billion in 2050.With constant population pressure, we are going to face the challenges of food shortage globally aboutagriculture. The animal production field provides a major share in the supply of foodstuff to compensatefor the stress of food scarcity. By adopting the advanced technologies in the animal production field, itsproductivity can enhance significantly. Innovation in technology has made work easier with thedevelopment of different software and the internet. Technologic development made farmers work morecontentedly hence, ultimately amplifying the animal production, proficiency, profitability as well asproviding a prompt way for livestock sustainability. The animal production consists mainly of 8 factorsincluding 3 major (animal breeding and genetics, animal nutrition, and reproductive performances) and 5minor (health observation, farm management, water, manure, machinery, environment control, milkingautomation and electronic identification). The use of advanced technologiesin these sectorsisfound to befluent by intensifying the ratio of sustainable livestock farming and the welfare of mankind in terms offood security. In this review, innovative tactics and techniques for animal production are potted withpositive research results and their drawbacks as well. The use ofinnovative technologiesin theirrespectivefields is close to taking control of whole world manufacturing under its hand to accomplish the worldprerequisite regarding food scarcity

    Estimation of statistical parameters in candidate wheat genotypes for yield-related traits
    (Elsevier, 2022) Ikram-ul-Haq; Ghaffar, Yasir; Ashraf, Waqas; Akhtar, Naeem; Ahmad, Muhammad; Ghani, Muhammad Usman; Fatima, Shayan
    Background: The selection of genotypes in breeding programs relies on accurate estimates of heritability for variables relevant to yield. The better genotypes may be chosen rapidly using statistical estimate. Seventeen advanced breeding lines and three commercial bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes (used as checks) were assessed regarding their genetic characteristics for yield-related traits in the cur-rent study.Methods: Grain yield's correlation with several possible qualities was investigated and compared to regional controls.Results: The results showed that the peduncle length was positively correlated with the spike length, plant height, and total number of spikes. There was a favorable correlation between grain yield and spike count. The number of tillers per square meter was favorably connected with days to maturity but nega-tively correlated with grain weight, moisture percentage, and gluten content. The percentage of protein and gluten also declined with the increasing quantity of grains in each spike. Weight per 1000 grains was favorably connected with moisture percent and negatively correlated with days to maturity. Day of matu-rity was positively correlated with yield, whereas day of blooming was negatively correlated. The number of tillers m-2 had strong heritability and rapid genetic improvement. The number of grains per spike, plant height, 1000-grain weight, peduncle length, days to maturity, and protein percentage all demon-strated high broad sense heritability and moderate genetic advance, whereas spike length and starch per-centage both displayed low heritability and poor genetic advance. The number of spikes per plant, plot yield, days to flowering, moisture%, and gluten% all showed moderate heritability with modest genetic progress.Conclusion: Following from the above, it is recommended that plant features with high heritability and genetic advancement be given preference in selection, while qualities with a negative link to grain output be subjected to cautious selection.(c) 2022 The Author(s).

    Milk Production and Composition in Camel and Its Beneficial Uses: A Review
    (2019) Ali, Wajid; Akyol, Ethem; Ceyhan, Ayhan; Dilawar, Sadia; Firdous, Asia; Qasim, Muhammad; Ahmad, Muhammad
    Globally, 16.9% of milk used by humans is taken from different species other than a cow. Thesespecies are sheep, horse, yak, ass, goat, camel and buffalo. The global camel (Camelus dromedarius)population is about 34 million head with sharing of almost 0.4% of world’s non-cattle milk. Withinthe last 20 years, the curiosity of camel farming is amassed remarkably in different countries of theworld including the Netherland, Italy and USA for camel milk production. The camel is consideredas a goal animal of the 21st century because it produces high quality milk under extreme temperature,deficiency of pasture and dearth of water. The average milk production of camel fluctuates from 4to 30 lt with lactation length ranges from 9 to18 months having peak yield in second to the thirdmonth of lactation. Camel’s milk is used globally because of its salty taste, high vitamin Cconcentration and its medicinal properties. Nevertheless, it gives many valuable benefits such astreatment of autism, control diabetes and allergy, prevention from liver cirrhosis and replacer of cowmilk to avoid an infant’s allergic reaction. The camel milk is a natural treatment of diabetes as it hasa substantial result in a decrease of mean blood glucose and conserves necessary insulin doses.Camel milk constitutes of protein (2.5-4.5%), fat (2.9-5.5%), solid not fat (8.9 -14.3%), ash (0.35-0.95%), lactose (2.9-5.8%) and water (86.3-88.5%) as mean specific gravity is 1.03. Due to itsdistinct properties, the consumption of camel milk is increasing day by day and a number ofindustries are working to promote camel milk production and processing. Therefore, the tenacity ofthis review article is to explicate the beneficial uses and production of camel milk over the globe.
