This research identified two genetic variants that influence the white-spotted coat patterns in Holstein-Friesian cattle, involving regulatory changes in the MITF and KIT genes, confirmed through mouse models, along with possible effects on coat patterns in other cattle breeds.

In this study, researchers identified six unique genetic variants of a sheep gene, KRTAP19-3, with specific variants linked to changes in wool fibre traits, such as increased fibre diameter variability, suggesting these genetic differences affect wool characteristics in Chinese Tan sheep.

This study suggests that variations in α-keratin proteins influence the structure and characteristics of wool fibers, indicating that keratin genes could serve as useful markers for identifying different wool traits.

In this study, the researchers analyzed skin samples from Dun Mongolian horses to uncover molecular pathways linked to the "Bider" marking, identifying differential gene expression and several pigment-related signaling pathways that may play key roles in its formation.

This study identified novel genetic variations in the KRTAP22-2 gene among eight sheep breeds but found no association between these genotypes and wool fibre traits, indicating possible species-specific differences compared to goats.

In this study, researchers found that the keratin-associated protein 36-1 gene (KRTAP36-1) allele C is linked to variations in mean fibre curvature of fine wool in Chinese Tan lambs, suggesting its role in their distinctive curly coat.

This study reports that KRTAP-like proteins, which resemble keratin-associated proteins found in mammals, are also present in the cornified teeth of various lamprey species, suggesting these proteins may serve similar functions in skin appendages across different vertebrates despite independent evolutionary origins.

In this study, researchers found that circulating exosomes from different sheep breeds can significantly alter hair growth in mice, with the source of exosomes influencing hair follicle size and hair diameter, as well as expression of specific hair growth and melanin synthesis markers.

This study identified a missense variant in the EDA gene of a male cat, which likely caused hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, characterized by hair and teeth abnormalities; this represents the first report of such a genetic condition in cats.

This study found that expression and variants of the KRT84 gene are associated with important wool traits in Gansu Alpine Fine-wool sheep, suggesting its potential use as a genetic marker for wool trait selection.

This study reported that during wheat polyploidization, decreased DNA methylation and specific hypomethylated promoters were associated with altered gene transcription, contributing to root hair elongation and improved nitrate uptake, highlighting the role of epigenetic regulation in enhancing crop traits.

This research identified a genetic mutation in Brachypodium distachyon that initially allows root hair initiation but fails to elongate them, while also affecting root growth and nitrate sensitivity; the mutation is linked to a previously uncharacterized cyclin-dependent kinase-like gene.

This study identified a novel genetic mutation, c.429delC in the hairless gene, associated with atrichia with papular lesions in two Pakistani families.
