Genome data uncover four synergistic key regulators for extremely small body size in horses.

BMC genomics - 25 Jun 2018

Metzger Julia, Rau Janina, Naccache Fanny, Bas Conn Laura, Lindgren Gabriella, Distl Ottmar

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Miniature size in horses represents an extreme reduction of withers height that originated after domestication. In some breeds, it is a highly desired trait representing a breed- or subtype-specific feature. The genomic changes that emerged due to strong-targeted selection towards this distinct type remain unclear. RESULTS: Comparisons of whole-genome sequencing data from two Miniature Shetland ponies...
