Genetic and phenotypic insights into thermal load and racing performance of Quarter Horses.

Journal of thermal biology - 1 Feb 2026

Santana Mário L, Bignardi Annaiza B, Faria Ricardo A S, Silva Josineudson A Ii V

Abstract excerpt

Thermal load is a major welfare and performance concern for athletic horses, as physical exertion increases internal heat production. Although several phenotypic strategies have been developed to mitigate its effects, the genetic basis of thermal tolerance in horses remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to (1) evaluate the influence of thermal indices on the racing performance of Brazilian Quarter Horses,...
