Abstract
Karakul sheep in Turkey is an endangered breed according to the total number of ewes. Two herds of Karakul sheep in Tokat Province, reared similar environmental conditions, kept in situ in vivo conservation as a gene resource. This study aimed to determine various performance traits of Karakul sheep reared in breeder conditions as a gene resource. Least squares means for lambing rate (LR), litter size (LS) and lamb production (LP) were found 95.8±0.60%, 1.04±0.01 and 100.0±0.80%, respectively. It was determined that farm and age had significant effect on LR and LP, while farm and year had significant impact on LS. Survival rate in lambs were found 95.2 and 94.1%, respectively on 90th and 180th days. Means of least squares for live weights of lambs at birth and on 90th and 180th days were identified as 3.35±0.02, 21.52±0.27 and 30.34±0.32 kg, respectively. Live weight after shearing and greasy fleece weight values were 40.73±0.12 and 2.04±0.01 kg for females and 62.65±0.53 and 3.48±0.06 kg for males. Lactation milk yield (LMY) was 104.85±3.73 kg in ewes and lactation duration was 159.01±1.70 days. LMY was affected by the lactation number and farm while lactation duration was affected by lactation number. Results revealed that various performance traits of Karakul sheep conserved in breeder conditions were similar to or better than those previously reported for this breed. Also, the breed is similar to medium size native sheep breeds in terms of growth and mature live weight.
