Emus are flightless large birds and native of Australia. Scientific knowledge of emu diseases is incomplete and very fragmented with specific details on technical aspect of diagnostic and screening tests. It is almost completely absent in most cases. Emu's are sturdy birds and resistant to most infection, however, among bacterial infection E. coli is most common sp. causing mortality in both chicks and adult. Still there is paucity of literature regarding colibacillosis in Emu's. In the present case two sick Emu birds were reported in the Emu unit of Bihar Veterinary College campus. Blood was collected for haemato-biochemical studies. Faecal samples were examined for presence of any parasitic infections. Also culture and sensitivity tests were done. They were found positive for E. coli infection after laboratory diagnosis. Amikacin was found to be most effective after culture and sensitivity test. Both birds were successfully treated with Amikacin antibiotics along with supportive therapy. Both of them started improving from 3rd days and completely recovered in 12 days.Keywords

Pearl millet is an important staple crop, and biofortifying with grain iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) is a continuing effort to fight micronutrients malnutrition globally. In the present study, parental polymorphism survey identified 99 polymorphic primers between the contrasting parents out of 275 primers used. Further, in bulk segregant analysis, two simple sequence repeats (SSRs), Xipes0027 and Xpsmp2263 were found to be polymorphic between high and low grain Fe and Zn content parents as well as bulks. The primer Xipes0027 showed the specific band of 214 bp and Xpsmp2263 amplified 238 bp in the high grain Fe and Zn content parents and bulks. Moreover, individual plants of each contrasting bulks were genotyped to validate the result of BSA. Xipes0027 was reported to be present on linkage groups 2 as well as 6 of pearl millet, and Xpsmp2263 was located on linkage group 7 according to the published SSR consensus maps. As a result, these markers have been reported to be putatively linked to elevated Fe and Zn content in grains of pearl milletKeywords
