First de novo whole genome sequencing and assembly of the bar-headed goose [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background The bar-headed goose (Anser indicus) mainly inhabits the plateau wetlands of Asia. As a specialized high-altitude species, bar-headed geese can migrate between South and Central Asia and annually fly twice over the Himalayan mountains along ...

Sequence Variation of Melanocortin 1 Receptor (MC1R) Gene and Association with Plumage Color in Domestic Geese

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2014
In contrast to other domestic and wild animals, the genetic variation of MC1R gene and association with plumage color has not been investigated in domestic goose.

Temporal Dynamics of the Goose Habitat in the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River

Remote Sensing, 2022
The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are the most important areas for geese to overwinter in the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, where about 180,000 geese fly to overwinter each year.

Identification of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Through Genome-Wide Association Studies of pH Traits in Goose Meat

Biology
The genetic regulation of goose meat quality traits remains relatively unexplored, and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be elucidated. This study aims to employ single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping in conjunction with genome-wide ...

Killing the goose [PDF]

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2017
The regulatory framework for implanted medical devices is preventing severely impaired people from benefitting from rehabilitation research. Consequently, research effort is wasted and we are unable to use implants to reduce the costs of healthcare.

Insights into growth retardation and dwarfism caused by goose parvovirus in goslings: a transcriptomic profiling study

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Goose parvovirus (GPV) poses a significant threat to the waterfowl industry as it results in a high mortality rate and stunted growth in surviving goslings, leading to significant economic losses.

Relationship between wild greylag and European domestic geese based on mitochondrial DNA. [PDF]

, 2015
The origins of the European domestic goose are uncertain. The available information comes from archaeological findings and historical literature, but genetic evidence has hitherto been scarce.

Identification of DNA Methylation Differences in Pituitary Tissues of Sichuan White Geese Using Whole-Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS)

Biology
To explore the impact of epigenetic modifications on egg-laying traits in geese, we employed genome-wide bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) to analyze DNA methylation patterns in pituitary tissues of high-(HYP) and low-yield (LYP) Sichuan White geese.

Investigating the role of transposable elements in shaping abdominal fat and egg production phenotypic traits in geese

BMC Genomics
While transposable elements (TE) are critical drivers of genomic diversity, their influence on phenotypic traits in geese remain largely unexplored, primarily because most research has focused on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP).
