High gene flows promote close genetic relationship among fine-wool sheep populations (Ovis aries) in China
Published 2016-04-01Get full textThe aim of our present study was to construct genetic structure and relationships among Chinese fine-wool sheep breeds. 46 individuals from 25 breeds or strains were genotyped based on the Illumina Ovine 50K SNP array. Meanwhile, genetic variations among 482 individuals from 9 populations were genot...

Molecular characterization of two candidate genes associated with coat color in Tibetan sheep (Ovis arise)
Published 2015-07-01Get full textCoat color is a key economic trait in sheep. Some candidate genes associated with animal's coat color were found. Particularly, v-kit Hardy-Zuckerman 4 feline sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KIT) and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) play a key role in the modulation of hair...
