Genome sequence, comparative analysis, and population genetics of the domestic horse

…, F Imsland, TL Lear, DL Adelson, E Bailey, RR Bellone… - Science, 2009 - science.org
We report a high-quality draft sequence of the genome of the horse (Equus caballus). The
genome is relatively repetitive but has little segmental duplication. Chromosomes appear to …

Pleiotropic effects of pigmentation genes in horses

RR Bellone - Animal genetics, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Horses are valued for the beauty and variety of colouration and coat patterning. To date,
eleven different genes have been characterized that contribute to the variation observed in the …

Ten years of the horse reference genome: insights into equine biology, domestication and population dynamics in the post‐genome era

T Raudsepp, CJ Finno, RR Bellone… - Animal …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The horse reference genome from the Thoroughbred mare Twilight has been available for a
decade and, together with advances in genomics technologies, has led to unparalleled …

[HTML][HTML] Four loci explain 83% of size variation in the horse

…, E Chu, E Gu, AM Chandler, AI Loredo, RR Bellone… - PloS one, 2012 - journals.plos.org
