Simple Summary Horse chromosomes have been studied for veterinary diagnostic purposes
for over half a century. The findings show that changes in the chromosome number or …

Simple Summary The genetic origins behind reproductive traits are still far from clear: this is
especially true in horses, where the lack of objective reproductive phenotypes (particularly in …

Equine Reproductive Physiology Breeding and Stud Management, 5th Edition provides a
thorough grounding in equine reproductive anatomy and physiology and applies it to all …

Simple Summary This study aimed to contribute to our knowledge of CNVs, a type of
genomic marker in equines, by producing, for the first time, a fine-scale characterization of …

Gonads are very peculiar organs given their bipotential competence. Indeed, early
differentiating genital ridges evolve into either of 2 very distinct organs: the testis or the …

Background Chromosomal abnormalities occur in the equine population at a rate of
approximately 2%. The use of molecular cytogenetic techniques allows a more accurate …

Chromosomal abnormalities in the sex chromosome pair (ECAX and ECAY) are widely
associated with reproductive problems in horses. However, a large proportion of these …

Chromosomal abnormalities are a common cause of infertility in horses. However, they are
difficult to detect using automated methods. Here, we propose a simple methodology based …

Simple Summary Horses are well known for the increased number of individuals carrying
chromosomal abnormalities related to the sex pair, which have been identified as a major …

Having considered that the current methods are costly and time-consuming, we designed an
only 3 pairs primer-based PCR test to accurately identify the species and gender in horses …
