• Response of Domestic Animals to Climate Challenges (2009, background): “Animals that have evolved to survive in adverse conditions generally have the following characteristics: high resistance to stress, low metabolic rate, low fecundity, long lives, behavioral differences, late maturing, smaller mature size, and slow rate of development (Devendra 1987; Parsons 1994; Ha”
• Physiological and thermographic response to heat stress in zebu cattle (2015, background): “Low metabolic rates resulting from reduced growth rates and milk yields of zebu breeds is a major contributing factor to their thermotolerance compared to European breeds (Hansen, 2004).”
• Factors Influencing Livestock Productivity (2012, background): “Additionally, zebu adaptation to heat stress has been thoroughly reviewed by Hansen (2004).”
• Invited review: Effects of heat stress on dairy cattle welfare. (2017, background): “Mitochondrial DNA analysis indicates that B. indicus diverged from B. taurus between 110,000 and 850,000 years ago, subsequently evolving in tropical Asian regions (Hansen, 2004).”
• FACTORS INFLUENCING IN VITRO EMBRYO PRODUCTION (2006, background): “It is widely known that Bos indicus breeds have a great ability to control their body temperature (Hansen, 2004).”
• Adaptation to hot climate and strategies to alleviate heat stress in livestock production. (2012, background): “The high heat tolerance of tropical local breeds is generally correlated with their small size, their low-production level and some special morphological traits (properties of the skin or hair, sweating capacity, tissue insulation, special appendages) compared with mainstream breeds and commercial l”
• Metabolic and hormonal acclimation to heat stress in domesticated ruminants. (2010, background): “The level of acclimation to heat stress also varies among breeds within the same species and this is probably because Bos indicus and Bos taurus cattle have evolved within distinct climates (Hansen, 2004).”
