Abstract excerpt

Hu sheep is an indigenous breed in China, renowned for its prolificacy. However, Hu sheep have smaller statures compared to other meat sheep breeds, necessitating improvement. Therefore, further research is required to explore the underlying molecular genetic mechanisms of body size traits in Hu sheep. In this study, whole genome sequencing was conducted on 300 Hu sheep with an average depth of 16.51X. A total of...
