Abstract: Hox genes are transcriptional factor that plays an essential role in determining tissue differentiation during embryonic development. In the present study, expression pattern was detected in cashmere goat hair follicle by situ hybridization for mechanism of action of Hox genes. The results showed that positive signal of Hoxa4, Hoxa5, Hoxa6was detected in hair follicle of cashmere goat at different period, which indicated that Hox genes play a important role in development of cashmere goat hair follicle.

Key words: cashmere goat; Hox gene; hair follicle; express
