B\u00f3gkreppa is a hereditary genetic defect in sheep in Iceland. The defect is likely to be recessive, meaning that in order for lambs to be born with the symptoms of rickets, they must receive the defective gene from both parents. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This means that the genetic defect has been hidden for years in the Icelandic treasury and then unexpectedly pops up. Mat\u00eds is participating in a project about the search for the genetic defect that causes bow crisis. The research project is funded by the Professional Council for Sheep Breeding, led by the University of Iceland's Institute of Pathology in Keldum, and in addition to Mat\u00eds, RML is involved in the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Aries directory 2022-2023, you will find an informative article about the genetic defect. The Aries directory can be accessed by clicking the button below, the article is on pages 52-53.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
