During the centuries taking in the account all companion animals cats always had one of the most important roles in all aspects of human life. By exploring the literature it could be stated that cats were always subject of human interest throughout whole human history, from the religion to art and further. First records about cat domestication could be found in the ancient Egyptian and Indian documents. First records regarding the cats were registered in China 1000 BC, and after that in other parts of Asia. In Europe intensive cat carrying has started at the end of the 19th century. A merchants brought different cat breeds from all over the world to Europe. Domestication of cat is related to start of agriculture era in human history. Cats were from crucial importance for humans in that period because they protected their grain from pests. Today, there are 70 cat breeds with the big number of different varieties. The fact is that the percent of pure breed cats is very low. The cat carrying is very important in the modern science, especially in application of genetic knowledge in biomedicine. By this book authors want to give a contribution to education of students and cat fanciers from different areas of felinology.

The length of daylight - day and night and annual cyclicality in outside air temperature are pronounced in moderate geographic areas, to which the area of our research, central Bosnia, belongs. Considering that cattle breeders in this part of Bosnia and Herzegovina choose the nomadic cattle breeding, the animals involved in the study were in free breeding and exposed to the influence of climatic factors of their environment. Reproduction is relied upon managing follicular development - folliculogenesis, hence it is the same case in the sheep production. Folliculogenesis is a process that takes places in the reproductive chain throughout the year, but the intensity and the dynamics of follicle development vary from season to season. The most intensive development of follicle with ovulation occurs in mating season, when normal hormonal picture is established, with the consequence of establishing sexual cyclicality. In order to have a more clear insight in the development of follicle and the overall situation of the ovaries during the mating season of Dubska pramenka, we studied the development of follicle. Histologic examination of the ovaries showed that the intensity of follicular activity slightly higher on the right ovary in relation to the left, which was reflected in the development of tertiary follicles and corpora lutea.

Ten microsatellite loci used in this study are appropriate for assessing the genetic diversity for this breed. Measures of genetic diversity were estimated based on allelic and genotypic calculations, observed (HO) and expected (HE) heterozygosities, deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and polymorphism information content (PIC). The lowest genetic diversity was estimated for locus PEZ20, and the highest for PEZ6 locus. Observed and expected mean heterozygosities were 0.7261 and 0.7392, respectively. Statistically significant deviation (p<0.05) from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was found for PEZ1, PEZ12, PEZ3 and PEZ6 loci.

Intensive broiler production has been improved in the last few decades especially in the fields of genetics, nutrition and technology, in order to achieve maximum growth broilers, the optimal utilization of food and high yields, especially white meat. Considering the above mentioned research was conducted in order to examine the impact of commercial probiotic products on the body conformation of the carcasses of chickens after 42 days of fattening. In experiment was used a total of 30 chickens provenience Cobb divided into two groups (P and K). Chickens from both groups were vaccinated according to the plan and program of immunoprophylaxis, and selected technical and technological solutions of accommodation, as well as feeding and watering chickens were in accordance with the recommendations of the selectors for the floor system rear...

Examination of the progesterone levels involved 14 (fourteen) cows treated with gonadorelin (GnRH), Fertagyl, manufactured by Intervet, according to the manufacturer?s instructions dose of 2,5ml (250 micrograms), within five minutes after insemination. There are individual differences in progesteron concentrations according to days of sampling in treated cows, respectively individuality is manifested in all cows between days of blood sampling, except for period of luteolysis (18th day) in non-gravid cows. Our research results indicate that there is a tendency for progesterone concentration to increase in grav...

Ten microsatellite loci used in this study are appropriate for assessing the genetic diversity of this breed. Measures of genetic diversity were estimated based on allelic and genotypic calculations, observed (HO) and expected (HE) heterozygosities, deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and polymorphism information content (PIC). The lowest genetic diversity was estimated for locus PEZ20, and the highest for PEZ6 locus. Observed and expected mean heterozygosities were 0.7261 and 0.7392, respectively. Statistically significant deviation (p<0.05) from Hardy- Weinberg equilibrium was found for PEZ1, PEZ12, PEZ3 and PEZ6 loci. The PIC values suggested that all markers (100%) are very informative (PIC > 0.5) in terms of their suitability for genetic diversity studies. When all observed parameters are taken into account (observed and expected heterozygosities, PIC, number of detective and effective alleles, number of detected and maximum possible genotypes, major allele frequency and major allele frequency index), we can conclude that PEZ6 locus shows the highest genetic diversity while PEZ3 displays the lowest. However, assuming values of observed and expected heterozygosities, as well as PIC, we consider loci PEZ20 to be the least diverse, but this locus has more effective alleles and more genotypes present than PEZ3. These preliminary results are the first genetic diversity survey of the Bosnian- Herzegovinian-Croatian Shepherd dog Tornjak in Bosnia and Herzegovina and could be useful to the dog breeders in designing and managing breeding strategies. Summarizing the information above, we can conclude that the population of the Bosnian- Herzegovinian-Croatian Shepherd dog Tornjak from B&H is not affected by substantial loss of genetic diversity. Results of our study indicate presence of reasonably high level of genetic variability and lead to a better understanding of this dog breed.

Climatic factors (latitude, insulation) had a great influence on the thickness of wool fibers in both breeds. The comparison of the results of median values of the thickness of wool fibers in May and November between the Pivska and Dubska Zeckel sheep. This breed in relation to average air temperature and degree of insulation showed certain discrepancies. The research studies showed that the thickness of wool fibers was smaller, i.e. the higher the temperature and the higher the number of sunny dayshours, the thinner and finer wool fibers, regardless of the Pramenka breed or season - spring and autumn. The data is a contribution to the research on the fineness of wool fibers and its use in a highly demanding textile industry, household, use for technical purposes and, in a way, its use as strategic ecological raw material.

According to statistical data obtained in 1990 and in 2009, number of cattle is decreased by 47%, sheep by 20%, pigs by 14%, horses by 49% whereas poultry is increased by 120,5%. Another negative consequence is eradication of indigenous breeds like Busa, Bosnian Mountain horse etc. Some improvements have been made, but our goal is to make best out of potential that we have. It is of a great importance not just for the livestock and animal breeding but also for economic development of the country. Key words: Agriculture, animal breeding

When all observed parameters are taken into account (observed and expected heterozygosities, PIC, number of detective and effective alleles, number of detected and maximum possible genotypes, major allele frequency and major allele frequency index), we can conclude that PEZ6 locus shows the highest genetic diversity while PEZ3 displays the lowest. However, assuming values of observed and expected heterozygosities, as well as PIC, we consider loci PEZ20 to be the least diverse, but this locus has more effective alleles and more genotypes present than PEZ3. These preliminary results are the first genetic diversity survey of the Bosnian-
Herzegovinian-Croatian Shepherd dog Tornjak in Bosnia and Herzegovina and could be useful to the dog breeders in designing and managing breeding strategies. Summarizing the information above, we can conclude that the population of the Bosnian- Herzegovinian-Croatian Shepherd dog Tornjak from B&H is not affected by substantial loss of genetic diversity. Results of our study indicate presence of reasonably high level of genetic variability and lead to a better understanding of this dog breed.
This breed in relation to average air temperature and degree of insulation showed certain discrepancies. The research studies showed that the thickness of wool fibers was smaller, i.e. the higher the temperature and the higher the number of sunny dayshours, the thinner and finer wool fibers, regardless of the Pramenka breed or season - spring and autumn. The data is a contribution to the research on the fineness of wool fibers and its use in a highly demanding textile industry, household, use for technical purposes and, in a way, its use as strategic ecological raw material.
