    La causa gen茅tica del pseudohermafroditismo no est谩 bien dilucidada, sin embargo se han reportado distintos casos de pseudohermafroditas masculinos los cuales en la mayor铆a de los casos se han tratado de explicar por efectos hormonales sobre las g贸nadas en formaci贸n durante el desarrollo embrionario. Adem谩s se ha explorado poco la relaci贸n de este fenotipo con la constituci贸n gen贸mica de los organismos que presentan la disfunci贸n sexual. En el presente trabajo se encontr贸 una fuerte relaci贸n entre el quimerismo cromos贸mico XX/XY y el fenotipo pseudohermafrodita masculino exhibido por dos ejemplares de porcinos Landrace X Largewhite similar a lo encontrado en freemartinismo de bovinos

    Dietary effects on pH, temperature and ruminal methane emission by Holstein cows. Case study

    The objective of this research was to estimate the production of ruminal methane in different prandial聽periods in fistulated Holstein adult cows and to evaluate the effect on methane production due to different diets commonly used in dairy cattle in an east region of Antioquia (Colombia). For this聽porpoise two different diets were evaluated on each cow; one of them was fed with forage Cenchrus clandestinus, the second one was fed with the same diet with an addition of 4 kg of commercial聽balanced feed/day. During seven days in periods of six hours, pH and temperature were measured in samples of ruminal fluid as well as methane emissions using a MQ4 gas sensor. As results must聽be said that forage based diet resulted in a major methane production, presenting the maximum concentration two hours after feeding and the minimum at six hours. Ruminal pH was directly affected聽by the diet; the lower value was found in the mixed based diet. There was no evidence of any effect聽of the diet on the ruminal mean temperature. Can be concluded that forage based diet resulted on聽a major production of methane compared to the mixed diet, this was also associated to pH changes聽but not to ruminal temperature. Although it is not possible to associate the production of methane to聽specific diet components. The food or supplements associated to changing pH values during the day聽may play a key role in the reduction of methane emissions and bovine energetic efficiency
