Association of Biometric Traits with Growth Hormone Gene Diversity in Raini Cashmere Goats
Walailak Journal of Science and Technology (WJST), 2018 In recent years, the important effects of growth hormone on a broad variety of physiological parameters, such as lactation, reproduction, growth, and metabolism, have attracted many researchers' attentions. To detect GH gene polymorphism and its association with the biometric traits of Raini Cashmere goats, 300 animals were selected and the animals ...

Variation in the Caprine KAP24-1 Gene Affects Cashmere Fibre Diameter
Animals, 2019 The keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are structural components of cashmere fibres. The gene encoding the high-sulphur (HS)-KAP24-1 (KRTAP24-1) has been identified in humans and sheep, but it has not been described in goats. In this study, we report the
