Molecular characterization of the llama FGF5 gene and identification of putative loss of function mutations.

Animal genetics - 1 Dec 2017

Daverio M S, Vidal-Rioja L, Frank E N, Di Rocco F

Abstract excerpt

Llama, the most numerous domestic camelid in Argentina, has good fiber-production ability. Although a few genes related to other productive traits have been characterized, the molecular genetic basis of fiber growth control in camelids is still poorly understood. Fibroblast growth factor 5 (FGF5) is a secreted signaling protein that controls hair growth in humans and other mammals. Mutations in the FGF5 gene have...
