Lambskin quality is an economically important trait in Hu sheep (Ovis aries), with wool-pattern characteristics contributing substantially to commercial value. However, the genetic basis of lambskin variation remains incompletely understood. This study evaluated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in four candidate...

LPS, an endotoxin derived from Gram-negative bacteria, disrupts granulosa cell (GCs) function, and impairs ovarian activity. This study aimed to investigate the role of miR-130b-3p targeting PPARG expression in LPS-exposed goat GCs. Results indicated that LPS decreased PPARG expression, while increased the level of miR...

In China, Hu sheep lambskin quality is largely determined by wool curvature, with wavy-wool lambs producing higher-quality pelts than straight-wool lambs. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying wool curvature formation remain poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted whole-genome resequencing a...
