This study found that wool fiber surfaces damaged in processing tended to have cellular debris adhering to them, while undamaged surfaces did not show this interaction.

This study found that in semi-coarse wool sheep of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain breed, changes in microflora and grease composition are linked to increased felting in wool, due to wetter, more alkaline fleece conditions that promote bacterial and mold growth and alter fatty acid balances.

This study found that CRISPR/Cas9-induced loss-of-function mutations in the FGF5 gene significantly increased wool length and yield in genetically modified Chinese Merino sheep compared to wild-type controls.

This study found that variation in the ovine KRTAP27-1 gene may influence wool growth, with certain genotypes associated with higher mean staple length and greasy fleece weight in sheep.

This study found that ectopic expression of FGF5s in transgenic Chinese Merino sheep increased wool length and greasy fleece weight compared to non-transgenic controls.
