Allelic Heterogeneity at the Equine KIT Locus in Dominant White (W) Horses
(Public Libray of Science (PLOS), 2007)White coat color has been a highly valued trait in horses for at least 2,000 years. Dominant white (W) is one of several known depigmentation phenotypes in horses. It shows considerable phenotypic variation, ranging from ... -
Análisis demográfico de la raza equina hispano-árabe
(Universidad de Córdoba, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2011)The breeding program of the Spanish-Arabian horse is in process of development and, for this reason, is necessary to know its population structure from the information registered in the Herd Book to design strategy for its ... -
Challenging selection for consistency in the rank of endurance competitions
(BioMed Central (Springer), 2020)Control of the environmental variability by genetic selection offers possibilities for new selection objectives for productive traits. This methodology aims at reducing heterogeneity in productive traits and has been applied ... -
Efecto semental x ganadería en la estimación de parámetros genéticos en caracteres de tamaño en el caballo Pura Raza Española: resultados preliminares
(Asociación Interprofesional para el Desarrollo Agrario, 2008) -
Fine-tuning genomic and pedigree inbreeding rates in equine population with a deep and reliable stud book: the case of the Pura Raza Española horse
(Springer, 2022)Estimating inbreeding, which is omnipresent and inevitable in livestock populations, is a primary goal for management and animal breeding especially for those interested in mitigating the negative consequences of inbreeding. ... -
Genetic characterization of the Spanish Trotter horse breed using microsatellite markers
(Brazilian Society of Genetics, 2007)To assist in selection schemes we carried out the first genetic characterization of the Spanish Trotter horse (Trotador Español). We used 16 microsatellite markers to genotype 40 unrelated Spanish trotters, 25 native ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Genomic screening of allelic and genotypic transmission ratio distortion in horse
(Public Library os Science, 2023)The phenomenon in which the expected Mendelian inheritance is altered is known as transmission ratio distortion (TRD). The TRD analysis relies on the study of the transmission of one of the two alleles from a heterozygous ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Reproductive traits in Pura Raza Española mares manifest inbreeding depression from low levels of homozygosity
(Wiley, 2023)Inbreeding depression is a genetic phenomenon associated with the loss of fitness and mean phenotypic performance due to mating between relatives. Historically, inbreeding coefficients have been estimated from pedigree ...
