Genome-wide DNA methylation and transcriptome analyses reveal the key gene for wool type variation in sheep.

Further analysis of the relative expression of the SOSTDC1 gene in skin tissues between coarse and fine wool sheep at newborn stage showed that the expression of SOSTDC1 gene in the coarse wool lambs was higher than in the fine wool lambs, with a highly significant difference at a multiplicity of 40 (Fig. 6 B).
