Genetic Signatures of Selection for Cashmere Traits in Chinese Goats
Animals, 2020 Inner Mongolia and Liaoning cashmere goats in China are well-known for their cashmere quality and yield. Thus, they are great models for identifying genomic regions associated with cashmere traits.

An Integrated Analysis of Cashmere Fineness lncRNAs in Cashmere Goats [PDF]
Genes, 2019 Animal growth and development are regulated by long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). However, the functions of lncRNAs in regulating cashmere fineness are poorly understood. To identify the key lncRNAs that are related to cashmere fineness in skin, we have collected skin samples of Liaoning cashmere goats (LCG) and Inner Mongolia cashmere goats (MCG) in the ...

Estimation of Genomic Breeding Values for Economic Traits in Alxa-Type Cashmere Goats Using Bayesian Methods [PDF]
AnimalsConventional breeding has a long generation interval; genomic selection can enable early selection and shorten the breeding process in cashmere goats. This study aimed to estimate genomic breeding values for economic traits in Inner Mongolia (Alxa-type ...

Selection of Cashmere Fineness Functional Genes by Translatomics
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 Cashmere fineness is an important index to evaluate cashmere quality. Liaoning Cashmere Goat (LCG) has a large cashmere production and long cashmere fiber, but its fineness is not ideal.

Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals AKT1 Upregulation in Inner Mongolian Cashmere Goats at 12 and 15 Months of Age [PDF]
Veterinary SciencesCashmere production declines with age in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, but the molecular mechanisms are unknown. This study employed a transcriptome-wide RNA-seq analysis to compare age-associated and breed-related gene expression profiles in goat skin,
