New mutations discovered!

Novel variants in the KIT and PAX3 genes in horses with white-spotted coat colour phenotypes

Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23659293

 

The new Pax3 mutation looks quite minimal.  They also discovered a compound dominant white W5/W20!

we think we've got the entire bottom row of horses figured out. And if anyone wants to read the short communication, shoot me an e mail--a friend sent it to me. heathentakespictures@gmail.com

In reply to by TheRedHayflinger

can anybody send me the complete article with photos? our stallion aladin dancer xx and trakehner fillys by the stallion sedar were tested. 

but they are not dominant white nor sabino.  aladin has some more mutations, but it is difficult to find out all. the same reason by the sedar offspring.

my email address is: trakehner@ok.de

the Swiss Warmblood...we found her, we found her pedigree...we did not find her name! LOL Audrey (ACC) helped me figure out the pedigree after I found the mare on a German (guessing it was German) forum.

She is by Chevalier von Hof and out of Carina (Calando II). She was born in 2009.

the appaloosa is Iza Flashy Fantasy, by I'za Last Jet. The paper mentioned a characteristics only mare with minimal white who also tested for this, and I'm wondering if it isn't IFF's full sibling, Iza Cute Cowgirl....

 

the only two horses we don't know are the two bay thoroughbreds in the first line of pictures
