Equine asymmetry: current concepts and potential applications

2024-03-10

Abstract excerpt

Asymmetry in horses has been suggested as an indicator of genetic quality, affecting disease resistance and performance potential. This review argues that equine bilateral trait asymmetries do not correlate with the directionality of competitive disciplines or selective breeding practices. The presence of similar limb asymmetries in both competitive and non-competitive horses strongly suggests a species-wide trait...
