Expression levels of LCORL are associated with body size in horses.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Metzger Julia, Schrimpf Rahel, Philipp Ute, Distl Ottmar

Abstract excerpt

Body size is an important characteristic for horses of various breeds and essential for the classification of ponies concerning the limit value of 148 cm (58.27 inches) height at the withers. Genome-wide association analyses revealed the highest associated quantitative trait locus for height at the withers on horse chromosome (ECA) 3 upstream of the candidate gene LCORL. Using 214 Hanoverian horses genotyped on...
