Heterozygotes for ACAN dwarfism alleles in horses have reduced stature.

Animal genetics - 1 Jun 2020

Graves K T, Eberth J E, Bailey E

Abstract excerpt

Homozygous and compound heterozygous Miniature horses for ACAN alleles D1, D2, D3* and D4 exhibit chondrodysplastic dwarfism (OMIA 001271-9796). In a previous study, the carrier rate for these four alleles, combined, was 26.2%. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether carriers of these dwarfism-causing alleles had a shorter withers height than non-carriers. A total of 245 Miniature horses were tested...
