Cross-species summary:
Long hair = angora
Species-specific description:
The molecular evidence reported in this entry is a result of the use of the CRISPR/Cas9 strategy to create genetically-modified (GMO) animals.
Molecular basis:
Wang et al. (2016) reported that "the disruption of FGF5 [by CRISPR/Cas9] results in increased number of second hair follicles and enhanced fiber length in Cas9-mediated goats, suggesting more cashmere will be produced"
Associated gene:
