  2. Equine coat color genetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equine_coat_color_genetics

    Equine coat color genetics determine a horse 's coat color. Many colors are possible, but all variations are produced by changes in only a few genes. Bay is the most common color of horse, [ 2 ] followed by black and chestnut. A change at the agouti locus is capable of turning bay to black, while a mutation at the extension locus can turn bay ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dun_gene

    A “blue” dun, or grullo. A red dun. The dun gene is a dilution gene that affects both red and black pigments in the coat color of a horse. The dun gene lightens most of the body while leaving the mane, tail, legs, and primitive markings the shade of the undiluted base coat color. A dun horse always has a dark dorsal stripe down the middle ...

    Myosin-heavy chain myopathy (MYHM) is a genetic muscle disease found primarily in the American Quarter Horse and crossbred horses with significant Quarter Horse bloodlines. It was added to the AQHA genetic testing panel in 2022. [ 1] It is a genetic dominant condition, though not all horses who inherit the gene will show clinical signs of being ...

    The horse genome was first sequenced in 2006. The Horse Genome Project mapped 2.7 billion DNA base pairs, [1] and released the full map in 2009. [2] The horse genome is larger than the dog genome, but smaller than the human genome or the bovine genome. [2] It encompasses 31 pairs of autosomes and one sex chromosome pair.
