Genetic stability in the Icelandic horse breed.

Animal genetics - 1 Aug 2012

Campana M G, Stock F, Barrett E, Benecke N, Barker G W W, Seetah K, Bower M A

Abstract excerpt

Despite the Icelandic horse enjoying great popularity worldwide, the breed's gene pool is small. This is because of a millennium of isolation on Iceland, population crashes caused by natural disasters and selective breeding. Populations with small effective population sizes are considered to be more at risk of selection pressures such as disease and environmental change. By analysing historic and modern...
