Simple Summary Sheep is one of the most economically important animals used as a source
of meat, milk, wool, and fur for human society. These commodities are essential for human …

As large-scale genomic studies have progressed, it has been revealed that a single reference
genome pattern cannot represent genetic diversity at the species level. While domestic …

High altitude represents some of the most extreme environments worldwide. The genetic
changes underlying adaptation to such environments have been recently identified in multiple …

Background The Tibetan cashmere goat (Capra hircus), one of the most ancient breeds in
China, has historically been a critical source of meat and cashmere production for local …

The bone morphogenetic protein receptor IB (BMPR-IB) was studied as a candidate gene
for the prolificacy of sheep. Nine pairs of primers (P1–P9) were designed to detect single …

In this article, a fast and sensitive nonenzymatic glucose sensor is reported utilizing a glassy
carbon electrode modified by synthesizing nanocomposites of nickel nanoparticle–…

Aptamers as new modes of detection have strong affinity and specificity for targets. A novel
sensor was developed by constructing a composite system of specific aptamers and reduced …

Detection of selection footprints provides insight into the evolution process and the underlying
mechanisms controlling the phenotypic diversity of traits that have been exposed to …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), with their capacity for self-renewal and differentiation into
various cell types, are important seed cells for stem cell therapy. MSCs exhibit potent …
