Predicted means for the produced strains of progenies on growth traits and fat-tail measurements between pure Moghani sheep and second generations of crossbred lambs (F2 and BC1).
The sheep (Ovis aries) plays a major socio-economic role in the world. Copy number variations (CNVs) are increasingly recognized as a key and potent source of genetic variation and phenotypic diversit
A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed to investigate seven red blood cell (RBC) phenotypes in over 500 domestic sheep (Ovis aries) from three breeds (Columbia, Polypay, and Rambouillet)
