The Inheritance of Horns in Cattle Some Further Data THE INHERITANCE OF HORNS IN CATTLE. SOME FUt~THE:~ DATA. B~z A. D. BUCHANAN SMITH. A~d,mal B~'eedin9 Resec~'eh Depa~'t'men4 Unive,rsi~y of Edinbu~9 h. (With One Plate and Four Text-figures.) Wm~N tile writer :first :heard of certain exceptions to the well-estab- lished rule of simple dominance of the polled condition in earle, he paid littIe attention to them. Further records of such exceptions, however, were encountered, and it was then felt that the subject merited fuller consideration. The following report concerning such exceptions came from two main smtrees: from Northern Rhodesia, where the crosses concerned were Aberdeen-Angus bulls and native cows, and from England, where Crosses involving the Park Cattle, between their two types and various other breeds, appeared to give anomalous resuRs. A. RttO.DES:[ANNATIVE CATTLE. For precise information regarding the case in Northern Rhodesia, the writer is indebted to N_r R. A. S. ~Iacdonald, M.R.C.V.S., of the Veterinary Experimental Station, Chilanga. His facts relate mainly go two cases, and are as follows: 1..In a herd of Angoni and hfashukulumbwe cows, the majority of which were pure native bred (though a few showed slight traces of Hereford or Shorthorn blood, bug none had any Aberdeen-Angus blood), a p~e bred registered Aberdeen-Angus polled bull was placed (see photograph). The cows were alI horned, ani[ in colour were red, red- and-white or dun. There were practically no blacks. FiRy-one of g.heir progeny so produced were traced as under: 27 heifers all compleSely polled. 9 bulls all completely polled. 15 bulls mostly with distinct horns or buds. All were completely black with the exception of a few white ~aces. This was the case in 120 such calves. 2. In another herd, a pure bred registered Aberdeen-Angus btdl (polled) was mated to native cows, all of which possessed the typical 3(16 [-[or~8 in Cattle heavy horn. In this ease, all f;he progeny were completely black, practi- cally all the heifers polled, and practically all the males with buds, short drooping horns, or ordinary short horns. It was found diNcuR to obtain more detailed information as regards exact munbers, and rather than obtain figtu'es which could not be guaranteed to be correct, it was considered advisable merely to give the bare outline of facts. The following conclusion concerning these two herds, which are typical of several others, may, i~herefore, be con- sidered indubitable and has been confirmed by correspondence: That a registered Aberdeen-Angus bull (polled) when mated to the native cows of Northern iRhodesia (horned) produced calves, all the heifers being polled and withou~ scars, and the majority of the bull calves possessing horns of various shapes, .a few being only scurred, and a very few being polled. As the cattle of Northern l~hodesia are being rapidly "graded" up, it is tmlikely that the native breed will retain their purity much longer. Andsince it seemed improbable that more exact facts were likely to be obtained, or that the reciprocal cross was likely to be made, it is con- sidered advisable to record these facts as they stand. The conclusion, therefore, is that in rantings with the indigenous cattle of Africa, horns are inherited as a sex-Iimited character; that ~s to say that the factors for their expression, are either dominant in the male and recessive in the femaIe, or otherwise governed by sex. Sinces in the ordinary domesticated breeds of cattle, the polled condition behaves as a simple dominant to the horned, and since there was ~ome blood of domesticated breeds in certain of the native cows used in this cross, it would appear logical to presmne that either the sex-limited transmission of horns, or the simple dominance of the polled condition, is the rule in cattle, and the one condition may be altered to ~he other by the action of one or more pairs of modifying factors. A point worth noting in this connection is that although ~his cross reveals a sex difference in )espec~ of horns, castration of the males does not appear to modify the horns to any great extent, as is the case in other animals whose horns are modified or conditioned by sex, e. 9. sheep (Narshall and Hammond, 1914), though Arkell (1912) shows this to be not so marked in the case of Merinos. B. PAP~I(CATTLE. The report concerning the other exception to the rnle of simple dominance of the polled condition in cattle, came from the Wild White A. D. BUOt{ANAN Sm'rn 367 Park Ca~le breeders in ~heir opera,ions towards bee formation of ~he domesCicaied breed of Park @stale. Since 1923, the writer has been in Couch wigh several breeders in an effort go obtain daga regarding ghe inheritance of coat colour in crosses of Park Cattle and[ other breeds. AC first, no record was taken regarding the inheritance of horns, as the figures appeared merely go be abnormal ratios. But, since practically nil the breeders with whom contact was made had obtMned qniCe nnexpec~ed ratios of horned and[ polled calves, resulting from certain crosses, iC was considered a,dvisable Co obtain some fro:Chefreliable data. The dabs which follow were obtained from Sir Claud Alexander, Ba,rt., of FaygaCe, Sussex, and Nit A. H. L. Bohrmann, F.Z.S., of Ide Hill, Keng, both of whom are leading breeders of Park @attic, and reeognised authorities on the breed. Before tabulating their experiences, ig musg be staged Chat there are, at the very leas$, ewe disCincg types of Wild White Park Ca~Cle which form ~he foundation stock for these experiments. These are called the horned and the polled. The horned were formerly ~he more common in ~he notch and wesg of Great Britain, and are now best represented by ghe Chiilingham Herd in Northumberland belonging to ~he Earl of Tankerville, and ~he @adzow1 herd in Scotland, the property of the Duke of I-Iamilton. The former herd has had very ligCle, if any, addition of foreign blood within ~he pas~ ewe huncked years. The latter is no5 qnige so pure, yet has a definite type, though some West I-Iighland blood has been in~rodueed in~,o ig as well as some Chillingham. The 1 Of ghis herd, t~{r Brown, Ohamberlain go ghe Duke of Hamilton, reported about ~he year 1886, f~haL "The cows seldom have horns" (8~orer, 1879, p. 339). This was corroborated by Sir John Orde of Iiihnory, u ~fgegilllvray (in his prize essay), and R[r Ohandos- Pole-@ell. The latter in Oegober 1874 fmmd ghe herd engirely horned. Sir John Orde sugges~ sghag bhe herd acquired horns after ghe ingrodnetion of a Highland bali (SCorer, pp. 341-845}. (See also Auld, 1888, pp. 507-508.) The earliest Mmwn reference to ghis herd being potled is in 1809 when a local poeg, l~oberg Burns of tic,mitten, in the note go his poem, "Cadzow Casgle," dedieaf~ed go Sir Wal~er Seo~, wrote ~llag'~4e bulls ~hen in use were mostly "humble" (i.e. polled) and ~ha~, some of ~he cows had "/~ne moony horns." Sir Wglger Beobg himself in his early poem, "Cadzow C~slAe," wriggen a year or ~wo previously, bug dealing wi~h evengs of ghe year 1569, describes the death of a wild bull "wigh black hoof and horn," despi~e f.he fac~ ~ha~ he was well acqnMnged wigh polled eagtle, and a friend of ~[r Hugh Wagson, one of ghe founders of Aberdeen-Angus eaggle. As the original wild Caledonian e~ttle were undoubtedly horned, ig would appear as ghongh ghe Cadzow herd became polled eigher by a mutagion or ghe infusion of polled blood, imssibly after ~he Oromwellian period, when, a~ ~r Brown says, ig was "nearly extirpgged." Ig is suggesgive tha~, according ~o Burns, in 1809 ghe bulls were polled and cows horned, where~s on ghe evidence of Iager aughorigies, e.g, h{r Brown, ~he females were more fre- quengly polled. TMs mighg indicate ghat polled blood was ingroduced through ghe bulls ~bout bhe beginning of bhe sengury, jusg as bhe honied blood was several decades Inter. 368 Horns in Uatt[e :Fig. I. :Horned :Park bull from the Char~ley I-Ierd, "Fayg~te :Brace."

EDITORIAL It seems not very long ago when I penned the last editorial, but as they say time marches on and we are already into Autumn, certainly down here in Wales the trees have shed many of their leaves, in fact some began in early September. In this edition I am delighted that Joe Henson has agreed to update his 1998 article on the Bemborough Flock and in particular his work with the establishment to the RBST. It really is fascinating reading and although I have been a member of the Society since 1996 I have learnt a huge amount particularly as one of my rams comes from the RASE flock and Joe‟s article fills in a number of gaps in my knowledge. As you will see in the AGM Report, Pat Quinn has stepped down as President and Robert Boodle has taken over that position with Judy Wilkie becoming Vice President. On a personal basis, I would like to thank Pat Quinn for her willing help in supplying articles for the Newsletter and the appointment of Judy Wilkie is a fitting tribute to someone who has worked tirelessly over many years for the Society – thank you and well done to you both.

  • The Stoneleigh Herd
    HERD FEATURE THE STONELEIGH HERD The Stoneleigh Herd of Sussex cattle was founded in 2002, a year after Debbie Dann and Alan Hunt had bought the RASE’s herd of rare breed White Park Cattle. White Parks, for all their good looks and photogenic charm, are not the most commercial of breeds so they wanted a breed to complement the White Parks and that would pay the bills and ensure the cattle weren’t just a glorified hobby. After looking at a number of native breeds the selection was narrowed down to South Devons and Sussex (Debbie is originally from Hersmonceux in East Sussex). Sussex easily trumped the South Devons! The dispersal of Mike Cushing’s Coombe Ash Herd in May 2002 provided the ideal opportunity to buy some foundation cows and four cows with calves at foot and back in calf again found themselves travelling up the M40 to Warwickshire. Coombe Ash Godinton 5th, bought as a calf at foot from the Coombe Ash dispersal sale and her heifer calf summer 2013 Debbie’s day job at that time was to run all the competitive classes for the Royal Show and Alan was and still is the Estate Manager for the Royal Showground’s farmland. Since 2007 Debbie has been Breed Secretary for the Longhorn Cattle Society. This means that both Alan and Debbie have full time jobs and the cattle are mostly managed outside of work hours and have to be pretty low maintenance. Stoneleigh Godinton 2nd and calf Cows are housed over the winter as all the grazing is rented and the cattle are easier to manage when they are indoors when the owners are working full time.

The region’s environment generally can be characterized as subtropical, i.e. hot, humid summers with ample rainfall supporting good forage production. Efficient cow-calf production in the humid South is dependent on heat and parasite tolerance and good forage utilization ability. Brahman and Brahman-derivative breeds generally possess these characteristics and excel in maternal traits. Consequently, they have been used extensively throughout the Southern Region in crossbreeding systems with Bos taurus breeds in order to exploit both breed complementarity and heterosis effects. However, several characteristics of Brahman and Brahman crossbred cattle, such as poor feedlot performance, lower carcass quality including meat tenderness, and poor temperament, whether real or perceived can result in economic discounts of these cattle. Therefore, determining genetic variation for economically important traits among Brahman and Brahman-derivative breeds and identifying tropically adapted breeds of cattle from other countries that may excel in their performance of economically important traits in Southern U.S.
