Candidate genes correlated to economically important traits in sheep - review
Sheep farming is an important agricultural branch in numerous countries, particularly in areas where due to specific geographical, pedological, and climatic conditions, the possibilities of breeding other species of domestic animals are reduced. Sheep are resistant, adaptable, modest, durable, and very useful animals, which is why they are so widespread and bred in almost all parts of the world. In many countries, they are the most important source of animal protein (meat, milk, cheese). The advantage of sheep is the fact that it is a ruminant and can turn a certain amount of voluminous feed, of different origin and shape, into high-value products: meat, milk, wool, fur, skin. They are mostly grown in the world for meat production, mainly for lamb. Milk is an extremely valuable product of sheep, especially in Mediterranean countries. Sheep's milk is rarely consumed fresh, it is mostly processed into cheese, less into yogurt. In addition to meat and milk production, there are many other reasons for strengthening and expanding sheep production. Despite the great competition of synthetic fibres, wool still has a very important role in the textile industry where it is an indispensable raw material and the possibility of its use is very wide. For knowing the genetic background of different animal traits, an important role plays the availability of genomic data, development of molecular breeding techniques, and genome technologies. This review aims to provide complete information on the identified genomic regions and candidate genes related to important production traits in sheep.
