Whole-genome resequencing of wild and domestic sheep identifies genes associated with morphological and agronomic traits

X. Li, J. Yang, et al.

This study unveils the genetic underpinnings of phenotypic variation in sheep by deeply resequencing 248 individuals, including wild ancestors and improved breeds. The findings highlight crucial genomic regions related to distinct traits and suggest *PDGFD* as a key gene influencing tail fat deposition. Conducted by a collaborative team of experts, this research is a pivotal contribution to sheep breeding and genetic study.
