Abstract excerpt

Two different phenotypes are described in alpaca, identified as suri and huacaya, which differ in the type of fleece. The huacaya fleece is characterized by compact, soft and highly crimped fibers, while the suri fleece is longer, straight, less-crimped and lustrous. In our study, the Fibroblast growth factor 5 (FGF5) was investigated as a possible candidate gene for hair length in alpaca (Vicugna pacos). As...
