research Fleece traits and important physical properties of hair fibers in lori goats.
Adding bentonite clays to goat diets increased milk yield, periwinkle shell improved chicken egg production, and vaccination increased muscle area and carcass yield in calves.
research The Effect of Testosterone and Fleece-Flower Root on Mouse Hair.
Testosterone and fleece-flower root affect mouse hair growth.
research Effect of immunization against melatonin on seasonal fleece growth in feral goats
Immunizing goats against melatonin can temporarily change their cashmere growth cycles and increase fleece production.

Key genes IRF2BP2 and EGFR are linked to Hetian sheep's double-coat fleece.
research Genome-Wide Associations with Body and Fleece Weight in United States Sheep
Certain genetic markers can help predict wool production in U.S. sheep.
research Label-free proteomics to identify keratins and keratin-associated proteins and their effects on the fleece traits of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats
Proteins influence the quality and traits of cashmere goat fleece, affecting hair strength and diameter.
research Transcriptome Profile at Different Physiological Stages Reveals Potential Mode for Curly Fleece in Chinese Tan Sheep
Genetic differences between young and old Tan sheep explain why their fleece changes from curly to straight as they age.
research Integrated miRNA-mRNA analysis reveals regulatory pathways underlying the curly fleece trait in Chinese tan sheep
Researchers found genes and microRNAs that control curly fleece in Chinese Tan sheep.
research Seasonal Variability in Transcript Expression of Type I and Type II Keratins in Wool Follicles of Lustrous Fleece-Producing Magra Sheep
Higher keratin protein levels are important for the wool's shine in Magra sheep.
research Hair follicle group and skin follicle population of Australian Merino sheep
Certain hair follicle traits in Merino sheep may be inherited.
research Hair follicle characteristics and fibre production in South American camelids
South American camelids should be sheared early, fleece type affects fiber quality, and the S/P follicle ratio doesn't distinguish between Bolivian llama genotypes.
research Effects of melatonin administration to cashmere goats on cashmere production and hair follicle characteristics in two consecutive cashmere growth cycles
Melatonin improved cashmere production in goats during the first cycle but had no lasting effects on the next cycle.
research Ectopic expression of FGF5s induces wool growth in Chinese merino sheep
Overexpression of FGF5s makes Chinese Merino sheep grow longer and heavier wool.
research The Morphological Basis of vicuña wool: Skin and gland structure in Vicugna vicugna (Molina 1782)
Vicuña wool's quality is due to a high density of fine secondary hair follicles, and their skin glands may be used for communication.
research CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated loss of FGF5 function increases wool staple length in sheep
Disabling the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to longer wool.
research Some Tensile Properties of Specialty Hair Fibers
Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.
research Identification of the KAP27-1 gene in sheep and its effect on wool traits
The KRTAP27-1 gene variations in sheep may affect wool length and weight.
research IRF2BP2 genes provide new insights into coat type and fiber composition variation in sheep
The IRF2BP2 gene affects sheep fleece quality by influencing fiber traits.
research Productivity of Australian cashmere goats grazing Pangola grass pastures and supplemented with untreated and formaldehyde treated protein meals
Protein supplements helped goats maintain weight and increased fleece growth, but not cashmere growth.
research Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Fetal Skin Reveals Key Genes Related to Hair Follicle Morphogenesis in Cashmere Goats
Key genes and pathways crucial for hair follicle development in cashmere goats were identified, aiding fleece production improvement.
research Differential expression of KRT83 regulated by the transcript factor CAP1 in Chinese Tan sheep
CAP1 decreases the expression of a hair-related protein in young Tan sheep's skin.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Improved Wool Production in Skin-Specific Transgenic Sheep Overexpressing Ovine β-Catenin
Genetically modified sheep with more β-catenin grew more wool without changing the wool's length or thickness.
research Comparison of the response of secondary hair follicles of cashmere and angora goats to prolactin and melatonin in vitro
Prolactin and melatonin affect the growth of Angora and Cashmere goat hair differently.
