Seasonal variations had an effect (P<0.05) on some HP (HB, HCT, MCV, MCH, EOS, and BAS). Neutrophils (-0.267) and basophils (0.268) were significantly correlated with THI. In conclusion, the Boran cows were more susceptible to tick loads during the hot seasons. Likewise, the levels of creatine kinase activity and temperature-humidity index were high during the hot-dry and hot-wet season. Therefore, seasonal variations had an effect on tick loads, coat characteristics, temperature-humidity index and blood metabolite profiles of extensively raised Boran cows.]]> Thu 13 May 2021 03:17:31 SAST ]]> https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:39629 Thu 13 May 2021 02:55:16 SAST ]]> https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:39117 Thu 13 May 2021 01:10:40 SAST ]]>
