Behavioural and physiological responses to stressors in sheep with temperament classified by genotype or phenotype
Abstract The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs107856856, located in the tryptophan hydroxylase-2 gene, is associated with the behavioural phenotype for sheep temperament measured at weaning. Here, we tested the association between that SNP and physiological and behavioural responses to stresso...
