This chapter describes the inheritance and phenotypic characteristics of tobiano, sabino, white and roan coat types in horse breeds.
This chapter describes some of the investigations that have been made into genetic influences on diseases in horses. Topics include simple Mendelian hereditary diseases and DNA testing, Mendelian disease genes not yet characterized at the DNA level, complex hereditary diseases and quantitative...
This chapter discusses the genetic bases for the frame overo and splashed white coat patterns and the increased sensitivity to the sun, digestive disorders and neurlogical defects associated with these patterns in horses.
KIT mutations play a key role in producing white spotting patterns in horses. However, not all white spotting patterns in horses are products of the KIT locus. The next few chapters describe the genetics of the traits gray, overo, splashed white and leopard, all of which are encoded by genes...
The molecular genetic characteristics, heritability and association with cataract and squamous cell carcinoma of the genes responsible for coat colour dilution in horse breeds are described.
The expression, mutation and heritability of the genes that result in the black, bay and chestnut coat colours of horses are described.
