Four indels were identified by sequencing with DNA pool. Association analysis showed that three of them were associated with growth traits (P<0.05). Our results demonstrated that the polymorphisms in bovine MSRB3 gene were significantly associated with growth traits, which could be candidate loci for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in cattle breeding. These molecular markers are expected to accelerate the process of molecular breeding.

This study analyzed the DNA methylation profile of the PITX1 gene and its relevance to lactation performance in goats. The methylation rates of the overall CpG island and the 3rd and 12th CpG-dinucleotide loci in blood were significantly associated with average milk yield. The overall methylation rates of the CpG island in mammary gland tissue from dry and lactation periods showed a significant difference. These results could be used as potential epigenetic markers for lactation performance.

As we all know, genes often influence physiological functions of animal organisms such as reproduction, growth, and development. This study explored a novel insertion of paired-like homeodomain 2 (PITX2) gene, and many methods of statistical analysis were used to evaluate their associations with traits of goats. Results indicated that this insertion was significantly associated with litter size, body length, and chest width of goats.

An effective DNA marker-assisted selection would speed up the development and improvement of goat products. The objective of this work was to explore novel indel (insertion/deletion) variations and their associations with growth traits in three native Chinese goat breeds. Results showed that the goat ATBF1 gene had marked effects on growth traits and the growth-trait-related loci, which would contribute to improving the growth-related traits of local breeds in the goat industry.

In this study, a novel 12 bp indel within the LHX4 gene first intron was firstly found. Meanwhile, the association analysis indicated that the 12 bp indel was significantly associated with litter size in 1149 Shaanbei cashmere goats (P < 0.05). The litter sizes of genotype DD and ID individuals were superior to those of genotype II, implying that the 12 bp indel might affect litter size. These results could provide a new insight into implementing marker-assisted selection in goat breeding.

One novel coding SNP was found in exon 1 of pig TMEM95 gene, namely NC_010454.3:g.341T > C, which was significantly associated with testis measurement traits at 15 days of age in the LW population (p < 0.05). Moreover, a significant relationship was found between this A47A polymorphism and testis weight at 40 days of age in LW population (p = 0.047). These results could contribute to breeding and genetics programs in the pig industry via DNA marker-assisted selection (MAS).

Nanog is an important pluripotent transcription regulator, and its overexpression leads to a high expression of the growth and differentiation factor 3, affecting animal growth traits. The aim of this study was to explore the genetic variations within the Nanog gene and their effects on phenotypic traits in cattle. Six novel exonic single nucleotide polymorphisms were found in six cattle breeds and indicated that Nanog could be a candidate gene for marker-assisted selection in cattle breeding.

Allele "D" (deletion) within the insertion/deletion of SPEF2 gene was dominant in male Large White and Landrace pigs from China. In addition, two novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms of this gene were first identified in pigs. NC_010458:g.19886C > G was significantly associated with testis long circumference (P < 0.05). These findings could not only extend the spectrum of genetic variations of pig SPEF2 gene but also contribute to implementing MAS in pigs.

In this research, the effects of two indel loci of the visfatin gene on mRNA expression levels were studied. The results imply that the expression levels of bovine visfatin vary with age and its indels might be putative variants mediating the expression of the bovine visfatin gene. This study provides useful information for further functional studies of bovine visfatin.

The effect of STEAP4 (six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate 4) on goat adipocyte differentiation is unclear. We cloned the goat STEAP4 gene based on the Jianzhou Da’er goat and analyzed its properties and its expression in tissues and adipocytes; further, the positive effect on the expression of subcutaneous adipocytes was obvious. This study will provide a basis for elucidating the biological function of the STEAP4 gene in goat and provide a reference for goat molecular breeding.

Different studies have reported controversial results regarding the effects of c.963A>G polymorphism in the BMP15 gene on litter size in goats. We conducted a meta-analysis by using data of all published relevant studies to address this contradiction and found a significant association between c.963A>G polymorphism and litter size at birth under dominant and additive genetic models. The meta-analysis results revealed that the AA genotype could be positively connected with litter size in goats.

Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) plays a crucial role in follicle growth and embryonic development. Ovarian granulosa cells also play an essential role in these processes. However, the effect of TIMP1 on the biological function of goat ovarian granulosa cells remains unknown. The objective of this study was to explore the impact of TIMP1 on granulosa cell proliferation and reproductive characteristics in goats.

Cashmere is a natural fiber from cashmere goats. The textile has been favored by consumers due to typical features like lightness, softness, and comfort. In this study, we show that circRNA-0100 promotes the differentiation of secondary hair follicle stem cells into hair lineage via sequestering miR-153-3p to heighten the KLF5 expression. Our results provide significant information for artificially regulating the secondary hair follicle regeneration and cashmere growth in cashmere goats.

Intramuscular fat is a type of fatty tissue deposited between skeletal muscle fibers and muscle bundles, which is regulated by the number and size of preadipocytes in the muscle, and it is a key factor affecting meat tenderness and juiciness. As a member of miRNAs, a variety of studies suggested that miR-25-3p may play an important role in regulating lipid metabolism and adipocyte differentiation. This study attempts to investigate the role of miR-25-3p in goat intramuscular preadipocytes.

This study provided a theoretical and experimental basis for further studying the molecular regulation mechanism of hair follicle development. EDA and EDAR were both expressed in the skin tissue in the seven cashmere goat embryo stages. Moreover, EDA and EDAR play an important role in the formation of embryonic placode (Pc). After interfering with EDA and EDAR, the expression of BMP2, BMP4, noggin, β-catenin, TGF-β2, Wnt-10b, and NOTCH1 in fibroblasts and epithelial cells changed significantly.

We tried to find important influencing factors of SHF growth cycle in skin tissue from Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Based on the results of comprehensive analysis of differentially expressed genes, GO enrichment and KEGG enrichment, we found that FGF5, FGFR1 and RRAS had an effect on the hair follicle growth cycle. The results of this study may provide a theoretical basis for further research on the growth and development of SHF in Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats.

Keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are a structural component of cashmere fibre, and variation in some KAP genes (KRTAPs) has been associated with a number of caprine fibre traits. In this study, we identified the caprine KAP15-1 gene on goat chromosome 1. Six variants containing eight SNPs were found. Association analyses revealed that variation in the gene affected mean fibre diameter.

ACOX1 is vital for fatty acid oxidation and deposition. The alternative splicing events of ACOX1 have not been reported in goats. Here, we found a novel splice variant (ACOX1-SV1) and a complete isoform (ACOX1). ACOX1 and ACOX1-SV1 were expressed at high levels in the liver, spleen, brain and fat in kid and adult goats. In both groups, the mRNA level of ACOX1 was high in fat and that of ACOX1-SV1 was high in liver. These findings should provide new insights on the function of ACOX1.
