The research was carried out in Karahta Research Station for Shami goats by using 84/head/Shami kids (122±18.65 days old and 18±3.77 kg body weight). This trial continued for a 90 day period. Its goal was to find out the possibility of reducing the offered concentrated feed in about 40% from the regular requirements for growing and replacing it by improving the nutritive value of the offered straw when they treated with urea, molasses or both of them. The Animals divided randomly into six treatments according to the offered feed for each treatment as the follows: Untreated wheat straw (control), wheat straw treated with 20% molasses, 1% urea, 1% urea and 20% molasses, 2.5% and with 2.5% urea and 20% molasses.

The study was conducted on 18 Shami goat Kids in the Agricultural Scientific Research Center in Hama, their age was 150 days, to ages and weights, reaching an average of 23.2kg, and they were dived into three groups(6 per group) depending on the sour ce of the protein included in the composition. The died for each of them 14%(as a 100% unshelled cotton gain for the first group, 100% soybean gain for the second group, a 50% unpeeled cotton gain and 50% soybean gain for the third group). Blood samples from the jugular vein were collected from all test subjects before starting feeding on the feed. Watch after one, two and three months from the start of feeding. Gifts blood samples were analyzed in all groups and a study of the indicators of glucose, general protein, albumin and globulin in blood serum to assess the energy and protein metabolism of gifts, when feeding on these diets. The results showed a significant increase (ᴘ≤0.05) in the concentration of glucose in gifts after two months of experience in the three groups, but this was the highest increase in the second group versus the control and the first and third groups, then its concentration decreased after that. A significant increase (ᴘ≤0.05) was observed with the concentration of the total protein in the blood serum after a month of the experiment. The total protein concentration decreased after three months in the blood kids in second and third groups compared with the first and control groups. The albumin concentration decreased after two months (ᴘ≤0.05) in the first group compared with second, third and control, also it's decreased after three months in the first and third groups compared with the second and control. The globulin concentration in the blood serum increased after one month in the three groups compared with the control, then in two months decreased( not significant) in the three groups, and after three months decreased (ᴘ≤0.05) the globulin concentration in the second and third groups.The increase in the weights of gift items in the groups was respectively: the first group 9.45kg (95g ∕ day), the second group 13.6kg (136g ∕day) and the third group 10.45kg (106g ∕day). We conclude that the energy and protein metabolic indicators were the best in the second group feeding 100% soybean meal as a protein source, which can reduce the period for fattening gifts and reflect positively on economic side and income generation.
This Study was carried-out at Shami Goat Improvement Station in Karahta. Ten growing Shami male goats, aged 8 months, housed and managed under the same conditions were used to study the semen characteristics. Artificial vagina was used to collect semen at weekly intervals, for 13 months to determine the volume, motility, pH, and sperm concentration using Neubaure- Spectrophotometer and Spermiodensimeter techniques. Overall averages and standard errors of volume, motility, concentration, and pH were 0.9 ± 0.07 ml, 65.24 ± 1.41%, 3.57 ± 0.14 billion/ml, and 6.52 ± 0.07, respectively. Seasonal variations were observed. A positive significant correlation between volume and motility (r= 0.42, P<0.01) was found, while negative correlations (P<0.01) between pH and other studied semen characteristics were recorded. Linear equations for detecting sperm concentration as measured by either, Spermiodensimeter or Spectrophotometer were obtained.
This study was carried out at the Shami Goat Improvement Station at Karahta. Twenty one week old Shami male goats were used to measure the concentrations of testosterone and LH hormones in plasma over a period of 21 months, using the Enzyme Linked Immune Sorbent Assay (ELISA), in order to determine the sexual puberty age. All kids were housed and managed under the husbandry regimes applied at Karahta station.
This Study was carried-out in Karahta station for improvement of Shami goats, Directorate of Animal Production Research, Ministry of Agriculture and Agrarian Reform. Fifty growing Shami male goats aged ٣ months, were used to measure the growth rat e of testicular parameters, their relation to the development of body weight and the effect of several factors on their development from weaning at ٣ months to ٢١ months of age. All kids housed and managed under the same conditions.
Shami goat in Syria is one of the important domestic breeds, because of its high productivity and breeding capacity under the hard environmental conditions and it is still being used in crossbreeding with Mountain goats as a donor for milk produci ng traits. This breed is still far away from scientific investigations even it has been exposed to a random crossbreeding with Mountain goats by goat breeders. This has lead to the possibility of losing some of its genetic characteristics which are not detected yet. In this research the genetic diversity among groups of pure Shami goats was determined using ISSR-PCR on blood and results indicated that there was a molecular genetic diversity among studied goats and polymorphic rate was register to 100%.
