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 genetic variation in the KRTAP21-2 gene among crossbred Merino lambs was associated with differences in wool traits, particularly mean staple length.

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 manipulating maternal cortisol levels during pregnancy altered Merino sheep wool characteristics, increasing fibre length and reducing crimp frequency in the offspring.

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.
