Animal scientists investigating the impact of climate change on livestock have discovered some Chios sheep in the Mediterranean are more resilient than others to temperature fluctuations throughout the seasons.
It is thought that pinpointing genes relating to variations in milk production could help breed animals which are resilient to warming conditions across the globe.
Milk from Chios ewes is used to produce feta and other cheeses, and the scientists from Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC), the Roslin Institute and the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) in Greece found that groups of genes in some sheep may enable the animals to be productive in hot and cold conditions. ....

Some breeds of sheep are more resilient to temperature fluctuations making them more productive
Pinpointing genes relating to variations in milk production could help breed animals resilient to warming conditions, new research has shown.
Groups of genes may enable some sheep to remain productive in hot and cold conditions, according to UK and Greek scientists.
Selecting animals with those genes for breeding could help flocks adapt in the region, they say, which is vulnerable to climate change.
Some Chios sheep in the Mediterranean - whose milk is used to produce feta cheese -­ are more resilient than others to temperature fluctuations throughout the seasons. ....
