Heritability of foot conformation and its relationship to sports performance in a Dutch Warmblood horse population.

Equine veterinary journal - 1 Feb 2009

Ducro B J, Bovenhuis H, Back W

Abstract excerpt

REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY: Warmblood horse studbooks aim to breed horses with a conformation that will enable elite future performance, but reduce the risk of injuries and lameness. Negative conformational traits, such as asymmetrical or 'uneven' forefeet would possibly diminish performance. OBJECTIVES: To assess the prevalence and heritability of uneven feet and its genetic relationship to other conformation...
