Horse coat colour is important for horse breeders. Several genetically characterized genes determine the coat colour of a horse. Knowledge of potential coat colour genes in a horse would assist the breeders in the selection of offspring with preferred coat colour phenotype.
MBG Lab can help to determine the genetics of coat colour in a horse by combination of different DNA tests.
Pathogens Tested
KIT Gene
Agouti Gene
MC1R Gene
Method
DNA Sequencing
Sample Type
EDTA blood, Hair.
Transport Condition
Hair samples should be transported at room temperature. Blood samples should be transported at 4°C.
