Whole-genome sequencing identified candidate genes associated with high and low litter size in Chuanzhong black goats

The reproductive performance of goats significantly influences breeding efficiency and economic returns, with litter size serving as a comprehensive indicator. Despite this, research on the genetic control of litter size remains limited. Therefore, we aimed to explore the candidate genes affecting f...
