On Hair Follicle Development and Wool Production Traits in Sheep: A Review
TLDR Wool traits in sheep are controlled by many genes and environmental factors.
The review discussed the complex biological processes and regulatory molecules involved in hair follicle and skin development in sheep. It highlighted that wool traits are controlled by multiple genes and influenced by environmental factors. The paper aimed to provide a theoretical basis for breeding and selecting sheep for desirable wool traits by examining the histomorphology and molecular mechanisms of hair follicle development.
