Goat genes show adaptation to environments and traits like body development, with differences among cashmere, feral, and milk-producing goats.
research Transcriptomic Analysis of Skin Tissue Reveals Molecular Mechanisms of Thermal Adaptation in Cold-Exposed Lambs
Hulunbuir lambs adapt better to cold than Hu lambs, showing more wool growth and thicker skin.
research Uncovering the genetic architecture and evolutionary roots of androgenetic alopecia in African men
Genetic predictions of baldness in Europeans don't apply well to African men.
research Two-ligand priming mechanism for potentiated phosphoinositide synthesis is an evolutionarily conserved feature of Sec14-like phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine exchange proteins
A protein in plants needs to bind two lipids to help with root hair growth, and this process is similar across different plant species.
research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Modeling animal genomics in mice: An authentic approach for the functional interrogation of evolutionarily and agriculturally critical variants
Mouse models are essential for studying and improving genetic traits in agriculture.
research Evolution of hard proteins in the sauropsid integument in relation to the cornification of skin derivatives in amniotes
Hard skin features like scales, feathers, and hair evolved through specific protein changes in different animal groups.
research The heart of the hair fiber: How the inner structure of the coat reflects adaptive variation across color, sex, age, and body region in dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius)
Camel hair structure, not color, helps camels stay cool in the desert.
research Decision letter: Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals evolved quickly in both gene and non-gene areas related to skin and hair.
research Genome scan for signatures of adaptive evolution in wild African goat (capra nubiana)
Wild African goats have genetic adaptations for surviving harsh desert conditions.
research Chapter 6. Darwinian Health and Other Contradictions
The document concludes that understanding health requires considering evolutionary perspectives on reproductive fitness, and recognizing the complexity of factors like diet, testosterone, and sexual orientation.
research Whole-genome sequencing of eight goat populations for the detection of selection signatures underlying production and adaptive traits
Researchers identified genes linked to coat color, body size, cashmere production, and high altitude adaptation in goats.
