A possible case of caprine-associated malignant catarrhal fever in a domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) in Switzerland

The Asiatic wild buffalo Bubalus bubalis was widely distributed in the river systems of south and South East Asia, but habitat destruction, hunting and interbreeding with domestic water buffalo have resulted in only relict wild populations remaining. Unless protection measures are intensified, the species could disappear in India within a few decades.

First Time

The domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) are classified into the swamp and riverine. However, their hybrids are also found in some parts of Assam (Brahmaputra Valley) in North-east India. Swamp buffaloes have a typical phenotypic appearance, like the shape of horns, small size, and body-color, etc. This study characterizes the indigenous ‘Bhangor’ buffalo population from the Tripura state using cytogenetic analyses. The blood of buffaloes samples were collected across the state, phenotypically identified as swamp buffaloes were cultured, terminated, and harvested using conventional karyotype protocol to determine the number of chromosomes. We have characterized ‘Bhangor’ an indigenous buffalo population from Tripura state using karyotypic analysis for the first time to confirm that all animals phenotypically identified as swamp buffaloes with 2N=48 chromosomes.
