Designing an early selection morphological traits index for reproductive efficiency in Pura Raza Española mares
(Oxford Academic, 2024)The low rate of reproductive efficiency in horses may be linked to the equine industry’s practice of maintaining breeding stock that stands out for its athletic or morphological performance but exhibits poor reproductive ... -
Quantitative analysis of parent-of-origin effect in reproductive and morphological selection criteria in the Pura Raza Española horse
(Wiley, 2023)It is generally assumed that parents make a genetically equal contribution to their offspring, but this assumption might not always hold. This is because the expression of a gene can be blocked by methylation during ... -
Genetic inbreeding depression load for fertility traits in Pura Raza Española mares
(Oxford Academic, 2021)Fertility is a key factor in the economic success of horse farms. However, it has received little attention due to the difficulty of measuring fertility objectively. Since its studbook creation (1912), the Pura Raza Española ... -
Prediction of adult conformation traits from shape characteristics of Pura Raza Español foals
(Elsevier, 2021)Horse conformation has been proposed as an indirect indicator of performance, since their genetic correlations are often positive and high. In Pura Raza Español (PRE) horses, the selection of conformation traits more related ... -
Genetic inbreeding depression load for morphological traits and defects in the Pura Raza Española horse
(BioMed Central (Springer), 2020)Background Inbreeding is caused by mating between related individuals and is associated with reduced fitness and performance (inbreeding depression). Several studies have detected heterogeneity in inbreeding depression ...
