Some cashmere characteristics of hair goats raised in Van province [PDF]
Austral Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2018 The aim of this study was to uncover certain physical properties of cashmere fibres obtained from goat hair in Van, Turkey, and determine their usability in the textile sector. For this purpose 36 hair goats were studied, aged between two and three years

Genes, 2023 microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the regulation of biological phenomena by down-regulating the expression of mRNAs. In this study, Liaoning cashmere (LC) goats (n = 6) and Ziwuling black (ZB) goats (n = 6) with different cashmere fiber production performances were selected.

Animals, 2023 The quality and yield of cashmere closely affect the economic benefits of cashmere goat farming. Studies have shown that controlling light can have an important impact on cashmere but can also affect the concentration of harmful gases. In order to explore the impact of a short photoperiod on the growth of cashmere and harmful gases in goat houses, 130 ...

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1993 An experiment was designed to investigate the effect of prolactin (Prl) on the initiation and maintenance of cashmere growth. Intra-muscular injections of bromocryptine (0.5 mg/kg) three times per week were used to suppress Prl secretion from August to December or from January to June in two groups of three male and three female goats.

Cross-population analyses between cashmere, angora and non-fibre-producing goats identified signatures of divergent selection [PDF]
Italian Journal of Animal ScienceAngora and Cashmere goats differ in hair follicle biology and fibre traits. To explore the genetic basis of these differences, Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) of Cashmere, Angora, and non-fibre goats were used to identify divergent selection signatures and
