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 ...
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 ...
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 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 ...
