In this study of four Chinese goat breeds, black goats exhibited significantly higher melanin content, while Inner Mongolian cashmere goats had longer fiber lengths. These findings highlight genetic variations in coat color and fiber length, informing future breeding programs.

This study identified a 195 bp duplication in crested chickens that causes large crest feathers and can be associated with cerebral hernia in some breeds, but not all.

This study found that the unique crest feather formation in Polish chickens is driven by a 195-bp duplication in the HoxC10 gene region, which alters gene expression by modifying the genomic structure, suggesting a mechanism for diverse integumentary appendages in birds.
