research Multi-omics analysis of functional substances and expression verification in cashmere fineness
The study concluded that the arachidonic acid pathway and the protein KRT79 play a role in determining the fineness of cashmere.
research Epigenetic mechanism of Gtl2-miRNAs causes the primitive sheep characteristics found in purebred Merino sheep
A special gene region controls the re-emergence of a primitive wool type in Merino sheep, improving their wool yield and adaptability.
research Analysis of histology and long noncoding RNAs involved in the rabbit hair follicle density using RNA sequencing
Rabbits with high wool production have more hair follicles, influenced by specific long noncoding RNAs.
research Multi-Stage Transcriptome Analysis Revealed the Growth Mechanism of Feathers and Hair Follicles during Induction Molting by Fasting in the Late Stage of Egg Laying
