Comprehensive analysis of differences in cashmere production performance in Liaoning cashmere goats by using metabolomics and transcriptomics [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionThe Liaoning cashmere goat is a precious dual-purpose breed in China. Although cashmere yield has improved through years of selective breeding, there remains potential for further enhancement. A subset of these goats exhibits a perennial long-

Cashmere production from Scottish Cashmere kids and crossbreed Scottish Cashmere x Jonica kids

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
This study is part of a much wider research programme to evaluate the possibility of producing valuable textile fibres, such as cashmere, from goat breeds reared in Italy. In order to achieve this, we have used crossbreeding.

Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis reveals molecular mechanisms of melatonin-regulated hair follicle growth in cashmere goats and comparative insights across goat breeds [PDF]

BMC Genomics
Background Cashmere goats are prized for their high-quality fibers, which are soft, fine, strong, and exhibit remarkable elasticity and luster. Cashmere growth occurs in secondary hair follicles and follows a distinct, periodic cycle. This study seeks to

Expression dynamics and functional roles of KLF4 during embryonic hair follicle development in cashmere goats [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research
Cashmere, produced by the secondary hair follicles of cashmere goats, is known for its fineness, softness, and excellent heat retention properties. With the growing demand from the textile industry, improving both cashmere yield and quality has become an
