    Genetic variations and haplotypic diversity in the Myostatin gene of New Zealand cattle breeds 

    Haruna, Ishaku L.; Ekegbu, Ugonna J.; Ullah, F.; Amirpour Najafabadi, Hamed; Zhou, Huitong; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (Elsevier, 2020-05-25)
    Myostatin (MSTN) is a circulating factor that is secreted by muscle cells, and that acts upon those cells to inhibit the proliferation of muscle fibres during pre-natal muscle growth. The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) ...

    Genetic variation in Dichelobacter nodosus Fimbriae 

    Zhou, Huitong (Lincoln University, 2001)
    Footrot is a contagious hoof disease of ruminants. It is endemic in New Zealand and throughout sheep and goat farming regions of the world. The disease results from a mixed bacterial infection, but the essential agent is ...

    Identification of the caprine keratin-associated protein 20-2 (KAP20-2) gene and its effect on cashmere traits 

    Wang, J.; Che, L.; Hickford, Jonathan G. H.; Zhou, Huitong; Hao, Z.; Luo, Y.; Hu, J.; Liu, X.; Li, S. (MDPI, 2017-11)
    The gene encoding the high glycine/tyrosine keratin-associated protein 20-2 (KAP20-2) gene has been described in humans, but has not been identified in any livestock species. A search for similar sequences in the caprine ...

    Identification of the ovine keratin-associated protein 26-1 gene and its association with variation in wool traits 

    Li, S.; Zhou, Huitong; Gong, Hua; Zhao, F.; Hu, J.; Luo, Y.; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (MDPI, 2017-09)
    Keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are structural components of wool and hair fibres, and are believed to play a role in defining the physico-mechanical properties of the wool fibre. In this study, the putative ovine ...

    Variation in the ovine KAP6-3 gene (KRTAP6-3) is associated with variation in mean fibre diameter-associated wool traits 

    Li, S.; Zhou, Huitong; Gong, Hua; Zhao, F.; Wang, J.; Luo, Y.; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (MDPI AG, 2017)
    Polymerase chain reaction-single stranded conformational polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis was used to investigate variation in the ovine KAP6-3 gene (KRTAP6-3) in 383 Merino × Southdown-cross lambs from four sire-lines, ...

    Polymorphism of KRT83 and its association with selected wool traits in Merino-cross lambs 

    Chai, Wenqiong; Zhou, Huitong; Forrest, Rachel; Gong, Hua; Hodge, Simon; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (Elsevier, 2017-10-01)
    Keratins are structural proteins in the cortex of wool fibres. It is thought that variation in the keratin genes (KRTs) affects wool structure and characteristics. Polymerase chain reaction-single stranded conformational ...

    Variation in the KAP6-1 gene in Chinese Tan sheep and associations with variation in wool traits 

    Tao, J.; Zhou, Huitong; Gong, Hua; Yang, Z.; Ma, Q.; Cheng, Paul; Ding, W.; Li, Y.; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (Elsevier on behalf of International Goat Association, 2017-09)
    The keratin-associated protein KAP6-1 gene (KRTAP6-1) was investigated for its effect on wool traits in Chinese Tan sheep. Two previously identified KRTAP6-1 variants (A and B) and two newly identified KRTAP6-1 variants ...

    Identification of the association between FABP4 gene polymorphisms and milk production traits in Sfakia sheep 

    Ibrahim, A. H. M.; Tzanidakis, N.; Sotiraki, S.; Zhou, Huitong; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (Copernicus Publications on behalf of the Leibniz Institute for Farm Animal Biology (FBN), 2019-07-15)
    The aim of this study was to estimate the effect of variation in the fatty acid binding protein 4 gene (FABP4) on milk production traits in Greek Sfakia sheep. Polymerase chain reaction – single-stranded conformational ...

    Characterisation of an ovine keratin associated protein (KAP) gene, which would produce a protein rich in glycine and tyrosine, but lacking in cysteine 

    Gong, Hua; Zhou, Huitong; Wang, Jiqing; Li, Shaobin; Luo, Yuzhu; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (MDPI, 2019-11-01)
    The keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are structural components of hair/wool fibres. All of the KAPs identified to date contain cysteine, which is thought to form disulphide bonds cross-linking the keratin intermediate ...

    Variation in the fatty acid synthase gene (FASN) and its association with milk traits in Gannan yaks 

    Shi, B.; Jiang, Y.; Chen, Y.; Zhao, Z.; Zhou, Huitong; Luo, Y.; Hu, J.; Hickford, Jonathan G. H. (MDPI, 2019-09)
    Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is an enzyme involved in the synthesis of fatty acids (FA) and plays a central role in de novo lipogenesis in mammals. This study was conducted to ascertain the relative level of expression of ...
