Description
| - Aim of this study was tested the hypotheses that calcium, phosphorus, copper and zinc contents are impacted of altitude, season, breed, management system, and herd in blood plasma of sheep. The sheep were kept in three herds, two systems, and four altitudes. Blood samples were divided according to factors Altitude (A1, 550 m above sea level (masl), n=96; A2, 800 masl, n=48; A3, 910 masl, n=35; A4, 950 masl, n=12), Breed (B1, Charolais; B2, Merinolandschaf, B3, Sumavian sheep), System (S1, ecological, n=47, S2, non-ecological, n=144), Herd (H1, n=48; H2, n=96; H3, n=47). Blood samples were divided according to the individual seasons of the year into four groups: Seas Year 1 (spring 2004; n=36), Seas Year 2 (fall 2004; n=34), Seas Year 3 (spring 2005; n=61), Seas Year 4 (fall 2005; n=60). Other factor was Season, blood samples were divided according to two periods: Season 1 (spring; n=97), Season 2 (fall; n=94). The animals were fed on pasture grass and they had ad libitum access to water and free-c
