Genetic Polymorphism and Association of KAP16.6 Gene with Pashmina Fiber Traits in Changthangi Goats

Pashmina is the fine undercoat of the Changthangi goats (Capra hircus) with Keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) as one of its main structural components. KAPs form a semi-rigid matrix in which the Keratin intermediate filaments (KIFs) are embedded. In the present study, an attempt was made to elucida...
