Characterisation of Keratin-associated protein genes associated with wool traits [PDF]
, 2015 Wool has unique attributes, but to compete with synthetics, the wool industry is looking for ways to improve their product. The use of gene-markers is one of improving the selection of genetically superior stock.

European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract Although innovation is often portrayed as arising deterministically from deliberate strategy and calculated decisions, many significant breakthroughs emerge not from planning but serendipitously. Building on this insight, this paper bridges the literatures on dynamic capabilities and serendipity to examine how SMEs realize serendipitous value ...

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global value of wool from coarse woolled sheep continues to decline, prompting producers to seek alternatives that reduce or eliminate the need for shearing. Several sheep breeds naturally shed their fleece in response to photoperiod, and these breeds are being crossed with populations that have high genetic merit for traits such as ...

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fleece shedding is becoming an increasingly important trait in sheep production systems focused on meat and dairy, where wool has limited economic value and reducing shearing costs is desirable. For inclusion in breeding programmes, a trait must exhibit genetic variation, sufficient heritability, and have well‐defined relationships with other ...
