Morphological variation in the horse: defining complex traits of body size and shape.

Animal genetics - 1 Dec 2010

Abstract excerpt

Horses, like many domesticated species, have been selected for broad variation in skeletal size. This variation is not only an interesting model of rapid evolutionary change during domestication, but is also directly applicable to the horse industry. Breeders select for complex traits like body s...
