Genome-wide analysis reveals adaptation to high altitudes in Tibetan sheep [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractTibetan sheep have lived on the Tibetan Plateau for thousands of years; however, the process and consequences of adaptation to this extreme environment have not been elucidated for important livestock such as sheep. Here, seven sheep breeds, representing both highland and lowland breeds from different areas of China, were genotyped for a genome-

Prediction of Metabolizable Energy Concentrations of Herbage in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau Using Tibetan Sheep Digestibility Data [PDF]

Animals, 2020
Due to its extremely harsh environment, including high altitude, hypoxia, long cold season, and strong ultraviolet radiation in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP), herbage species and nutritional value of the pasture may differ considerably from elsewhere across the world.

Dietary resveratrol modulates rumen microbiota and metabolic function in Tibetan sheep: an integrated 16S rRNA sequencing and metabolomics analysis. [PDF]

Front Microbiol
Introduction Resveratrol (RES), a natural plant polyphenolic compound, can be used as a dietary supplement and has shown good application after addition to monogastric animal diets, but fewer studies have been conducted in ruminants, especially in ...

Dynamics and stabilization of the rumen microbiome in yearling Tibetan sheep [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe productivity of ruminants depends largely on rumen microbiota. However, there are few studies on the age-related succession of rumen microbial communities in grazing lambs. Here, we conducted 16 s rRNA gene sequencing for bacterial identification on rumen fluid samples from 27 Tibetan lambs at nine developmental stages (days (D) 0, 2, 7, 14,

Genome-wide analysis of CNVs in three populations of Tibetan sheep using whole-genome resequencing

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Copy number variation (CNV), an important source of genomic structural variation, can disturb genetic structure, dosage, regulation and expression, and is associated with phenotypic diversity and adaptation to local environments in mammals.

Supersaturation of Dissolved Hydrogen and Methane in Rumen of Tibetan Sheep [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Hydrogen (H2) is an essential substrate for methanogens to produce methane (CH4), and also influences pathways of volatile fatty acids (VFA) production in the rumen. Dissolved H2 (H2 (aq)) is the form of H2 available to microbes, and dissolved CH4 (CH4 (aq)) is important for indicating methanogens activity.
