Genomic amplification of the caprine EDNRA locus might lead to a dose dependent loss of pigmentation

The South African Boer goat displays a characteristic white spotting phenotype, in which the pigment is limited to the head. Exploiting the existing phenotype variation within the breed, we mapped the locus causing this white spotting phenotype to chromosome 17 by genome wide association. Subsequent...
