Skin follicular studies of four non-woolly Indian goat breeds are reported. The number of primary follicles ranged from 2 to 14 mm-2 with an overall mean of 6.40 +/- 0.22. Secondary follicles per mm2 ranged from 1 to 23 with an overall mean of 9.48 +/- 0.55. The secondary/primary follicle ratios (S/P) for Black Bengal, Jamnapari, Barbari and Sirohi goats were 1.57 +/- 0.21, 1.15 +/- 0.16, 1.61 +/- 0.21 and 2.04 +/- 0.21, respectively, with an overall mean of 1.59 +/- 0.99. The corresponding values for the total follicles per mm2 for the four breeds were 16.83 +/- 1.39, 15.86 +/- 1.08, 17.66 +/- 1.41 and 13.19 +/- 1.41 with an overall mean of 15.88 +/- 0.66. Per cent primaries were lowest in Sirohi and highest in Jamnapari goats. Analysis of variance revealed significant differences between breeds for the number of primary follicles and S/P ratio. Sex differences and the interaction between breed x sex were not significant for any of the follicle traits studied. On the basis of follicle characteristics the non-woolly short-haired goats offer a reasonable scope for crossing with fibre goats, and Sirohi goats possibly have better skin quality for leather conversion than other goat breeds studied.
本文报道了对四个非毛用印度山羊品种的皮肤毛囊研究。初级毛囊数量范围为每平方毫米2至14个，总体平均值为6.40±0.22。每平方毫米次级毛囊数量范围为1至23个，总体平均值为9.48±0.55。黑孟加拉、贾姆纳帕里、巴尔巴里和西罗希山羊的次级/初级毛囊比率（S/P）分别为1.57±0.21、1.15±0.16、1.61±0.21和2.04±0.21，总体平均值为1.59±0.99。四个品种每平方毫米总毛囊的相应值分别为16.83±1.39、15.86±1.08、17.66±1.41和13.19±1.41，总体平均值为15.88±0.66。初级毛囊百分比在西罗希山羊中最低，在贾姆纳帕里山羊中最高。方差分析显示，品种间初级毛囊数量和S/P比率存在显著差异。在所研究的任何毛囊性状中，性别差异以及品种×性别的相互作用均不显著。基于毛囊特征，非毛用短毛山羊与纤维山羊杂交具有合理的空间，并且西罗希山羊在皮革加工方面可能比所研究的其他山羊品种具有更好的皮肤质量。
