Climate resilience in goats: a comprehensive review of the genetic basis for adaptation to varied climatic conditions.
Review in Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The sustainability of livestock systems is widely acknowledged to be threatened by climate change on a worldwide scale. There are worries about the effects this phenomenon may have on the productivity and performance of native livestock species due to its influence on environmental stresses, such as the frequency and severity of unfavorable weather occurrences and the ongoing changes in the agro-ecological landscape. Among the most climatically tolerant livestock animals, goats can survive in a range of environments, from deserts to alpine areas. The domestic goat has undergone significant phenotypic changes in terms of shape, behavior, physiological adaptation, reproduction, and production over their evolutionary journey. It will be possible to better understand the genetic mechanisms underlying successful domestication and the practical breeding strategies leading to the improvement in productivity and resilience to environmental challenges by identifying the genes underlying these modifications. This review explores current knowledge on goat adaptation strategies, emphasizing gene expression patterns, epigenetic modifications, and whole-genome selection signatures. It examines how these molecular mechanisms enable goats to endure heat stress, hypoxia, and other environmental challenges. Furthermore, the review highlights the potential of epigenetic markers and selection signatures in developing climate-resilient goat breeds through marker-assisted selection and genome editing, offering actionable insights into sustainable goat production in the context of global climate change.
