Association analysis of GPRC5D and GJA1 gene polymorphisms with cashmere fiber diameter and production traits in Liaoning Cashmere Goats

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture
Liaoning cashmere goats are renowned for high cashmere yield but often exhibit coarser fiber diameter, limiting commercial value. This study investigated the associations of GPRC5D (G protein-coupled receptor class C group 5 member D) (G2122T) and GJA1 ...

Inkjet Printing of Keratin‐Based Ink Formulation

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 4, Page 859-868, 15 February 2026.
Keratin‐based inks were formulated and optimized for inkjet printing by tuning rheological and interfacial properties using sodium alginate and surfactants. The resulting formulations enable stable jetting and uniform film formation, demonstrating the feasibility of digitally printing biocompatible, protein‐based materials for skin‐mimicking and ...

Associations of TERB2 and LRP6 polymorphisms with cashmere, growth, lactation and reproductive traits in Liaoning Cashmere goats

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science
This study evaluated associations of TERB2 and LRP6 polymorphisms with economically important traits in 1 181 Liaoning Cashmere goats (Capra hircus). Two exonic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), G841C in TERB2 and C98161A in LRP6, were identified ...

miR‐375 Regulates Extracellular Vesicle Secretion From Giardia duodenalis via Targeting Rab1a

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Giardia duodenalis (G. duodenalis) represents a prevalent zoonotic protozoan pathogen responsible for diarrheal disorders across human and animal hosts. To date, no licensed effective vaccines have been developed against giardiasis, and the emergence of drug resistance progressively impairs the efficacy of conventional clinical chemotherapy ...

Management strategies for preventing and recovering from zoysiagrass winterkill

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp. Willd.) is a warm‐season grass used from tropical to temperate climates, and it generally requires fewer inputs than most other cool‐ and warm‐season turfgrasses. The development of new zoysiagrass cultivars has increased its use in the United States, but its adaptation and specific uses are species and cultivar ...
