Genome-Wide Scan of Wool Production Traits in Akkaraman Sheep

open access: yesGenes, 2023
The objective of this study was to uncover the genetic background of wool quality, a production trait, by estimating genomic heritability and implementing GWAS in Akkaraman sheep. The wool characteristics measured included fibre diameter (FD) and staple length (SL) at the age of 8 months and yearling fibre diameter (YFD), yearling staple length (YSL ...

Wool quantitative trait loci in Merino sheep

Small Ruminant Research, 2008
Abstract With the aim of identifying QTL affecting wool production and wool quality in Merino sheep, specific regions of chromosomes 3, 4, 11 and 25 were analyzed in eight half-sib families, with an average of 63 offspring per sire. Greasy fleece weight and body weight were recorded at hogget and adult shearing.

Unravelling the proteome of wool: Towards markers of wool quality traits

Journal of Proteomics, 2012
With ongoing efforts to make wool more competitive alongside other fibres, notably synthetics, there is a need to obtain a better understanding of the relationship between protein composition and characteristic wool properties to assist sheep breeding programmes.

Morphological traits of the development of the skin and wool cover in sheep of Prikatunsky meat and wool type

Glavnyj zootehnik (Head of Animal Breeding), 2021
A large number of works are devoted to the development of the skin and hair cover of sheep, depending on their breed affiliation, age, feeding conditions and housing. The authors point out that along with other conditions the quality of wool and wool clip is greatly influenced by the conditions of the feeding of animals.

A study of some wool traits in two coarse wool breeds and their reciprocal crosses

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1978
SummaryIn a study of two coarse wool breeds (Awassi and Karadi) and their reciprocal crosses, data were obtained on the mean fibre length, mean fibre diameter, fibre type ratio, medullation and on the effect of some environmental factors on these traits. Reciprocal crosses showed intermediate values, in growth rate of fibres, percentages of fibre types
