Key genes and factors crucial for hair follicle development and wool traits in Merino sheep were identified.

Sheep wool follicles absorb different amino acids at various rates and locations, which could affect wool growth based on diet and genetics.

Sheep wool follicles can metabolize both glucose and acetate using different pathways important for wool growth.

Certain circular RNAs may regulate wool follicle growth in sheep.

Merino sheep have fewer wool follicles at birth than before birth.

Sheep hair follicle cells can grow a lot but need the dermal papilla to do so.

Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.

Genetically modified sheep with more β-catenin grew more wool without changing the wool's length or thickness.

Key proteins influence wool quality by affecting hair follicle development in sheep.

Higher keratin protein levels are important for the wool's shine in Magra sheep.

Understanding wool keratin-associated proteins in sheep can help improve wool quality through selective breeding.

Magra sheep's wool luster is linked to specific keratin gene expression and protein variations.

Crimped wool has proteins linked to crimp formation, while straight wool has proteins linked to fiber fineness, which can improve wool quality and value.

Curly wool has more orthocortex than straight wool.

Dorper sheep's wool shedding is linked to specific genes and pathways, which may help understand human hair growth.

A specific genetic variation affects wool quality in sheep.

Chinese fine-wool sheep have genetic variations linked to traits like milk and health, with some genes under strong selection.

Wool traits in sheep are controlled by many genes and environmental factors.

To prevent wool loss in sheep, provide balanced nutrition and reduce stress.

Disabling the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to longer wool.

Specific gene variants affect wool traits in Chinese Tan sheep.
