Trends towards revealing the genetic architecture of sheep tail patterning: Promising genes and investigatory pathways.

Animal genetics - 1 Dec 2021

Kalds P, Luo Q, Sun K, Zhou S, Chen Y, Wang X

Abstract excerpt

Different sheep breeds have evolved after initial domestication, generating various tail phenotypic patterns. The phenotypic diversity of sheep tail patterns offers ideal materials for comparative analysis of its genetic basis. Evolutionary biologists, animal geneticists, breeders, and producers have been curious to clearly understand the underlying genetics behind phenotypic differences in sheep tails....
