Morphological Investigations on The Hairs of The Honaml？ Goat and The Hair Goat (Black Goat)

In this study, it was aimed that to reveal different and similar aspects of hair structures and breed characteristics with cortex, medulla, bulbus and scopus pili of these two goat breeds by macro anatomic, stereo microscopic, light microscopic, SEM and tensile test results. When we look at the types of bulbus observed in both goat breeds, a characteristic that is important in terms of breed discrimination cannot be determined. The diameters of the bulbus pili and scapus pili of Honaml？ Goat were found to be greater than Hair Goat’s. This difference was also found to be significantly higher of the cortex and medulla measurements in the Honaml？ Goats. The strongest hairs on the maximum elongation and maximum strength on pull-test were Honaml？ Goats. According to the average stretch value, Hair Goats have more flexibilit
