Genetic parameters for yearling wool production, wool quality and bodyweight traits in fine wool Merino sheep [PDF]
Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture, 2008 Genetic parameters were estimated for traits measured in the first year of production in a multi-bloodline flock of fine wool Merino sheep. Between 5025 and 9271 animals were measured, depending on the trait, and these animals were the progeny of up to 430 sires.

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022 The coarse wool breeds have a very small share in the clothing market due to the difficulty of their weaving and sewing. Herein, we propose a new method for utilization of coarse wool fibers (Barki), after grading and sorting according to handle ...

Nature, 1919 MR. LYDEKKER in his monograph on “Wild Oxen, Sheep, and Goats,” published in 1898, stated that the ancestral stock of sheep is not only extinct, “but totally unknown.” But in a book on sheep published in 1912 Lydekker admitted that the mouflon and urial had probably contributed to the making of domestic breeds.

Association of SLIT3 and ZNF280B Gene Polymorphisms with Wool Fiber Diameter
Animals, 2023 The SLIT3 gene encodes a secreted protein, and the ZNF280B gene is a member of the transcription factor family. Both genes have multiple biological functions.

Exploring Differentially Expressed Genes and Natural Antisense Transcripts in Sheep (Ovis aries) Skin with Different Wool Fiber Diameters by Digital Gene Expression Profiling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Wool fiber diameter (WFD) is the most important economic trait of wool. However, the genes specifically controlling WFD remain elusive. In this study, the expression profiles of skin from two groups of Gansu Alpine merino sheep with different WFD (a ...
