Abstract excerpt

Mature body size and weight of sheep are important traits that significantly influence mutton yield and economic benefits of sheep farming. The exploration for key genes underlying these traits will facilitate the advancement of molecular breeding in meat sheep. In this study, key candidate genes for five body size traits and the body weight were identified in mature Huameng meat sheep through GWAS and ROH...
