Genome-wide analyses to identify genomic regions associated with udder morphology traits in dairy sheep.

Journal of dairy science - 1 May 2026

Abstract excerpt

In dairy sheep, mammary morphology-related phenotypes are crucial functional traits due to their connection to machine milking aptitude, udder health, particularly mastitis, and animal welfare. This study aimed to dissect the genetic architecture underlying 5 mammary morphology traits (Udder depth, Udder attachment, Teat placement, Teat size, and Udder shape) in Churra dairy sheep by using data generated with the...
