DOI: 10.1038/s41597-025-05650-0
Abstract: Compared to commercial sheep breeds, Tibetan sheep are exceptionally productive in high-altitude environments. Whole-genome sequencing can elucidate the genetic markers and candidate genes related to such economic traits, greatly accelerating the breeding progress. However, a… read more here.
