Gene mapping studies of keratin proteins have identified some chromosomal regions which have significant association with various wool quality and production traits. Among all the classes of Keratin Associated Protein gene, KAP 3.2 and KAP 6.1 genes are found to be polymorphic having impact on wool characteristics.en-USVeterinary ScienceAnimal Genetics and BreedingPOLYMORPHISM OF KERATIN - ASSOCIATED PROTEIN (KAP) 3.2 GENE AND ITS ASSOCIATION WITH WOOL TRAITS OF SANDYNO AND NILAGIRI BREEDS OF SHEEPThesis
