Whole-genome resequencing of wild and domestic sheep identifies genes associated with morphological and agronomic traits

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Understanding the genetic changes underlying phenotypic variation in sheep (Ovis aries) may facilitate our efforts towards further improvement. Here, we report the deep resequencing of 248 sheep including the wild ancestor (O. orientalis), landraces, and

SNPs in Sheep: Characterization of Lithuanian Sheep Populations [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
In Lithuania, there are two recognised native sheep breeds: old native Lithuanian Coarsewooled and Lithuanian Blackface. In addition, in 2005, primitive Heidschnucke-type Skudde sheep were imported to Lithuania and were argued to possibly represent a lost Lithuanian sheep type.
