  • The Evolution of Racehorse Clusters in the United States: Geographic Analysis and Implications for Sustainable Agricultural Development

Weinert 2, Elizabeth Dobis 3 and Karyn Malinowski 2,* 1 Department of Agricultural, Food and Resource Economics, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, 55 Dudley Rd., New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA; [email protected] 2 Equine Science Center, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, ASB II 57 US HWY 1, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA; [email protected] 3 Northeast Regional Center for Rural Development, Pennsylvania State University, 207A Armsby Building, University Park, PA 16802, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-848-932-9419 Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 6 January 2020; Published: 8 January 2020 Abstract: Sustainability is frequently defined as the need to place equal emphasis on three societal goals: economic prosperity, environment, and social equity. This “triple bottom line” (TBL) framework is embraced by practitioners in both corporate and government settings. Within agriculture, the horse-racing industry and its breeding component are an interesting case study for the TBL approach to local development. The sector is to some extent a “knowledge industry”, agglomerating in relatively few regions worldwide. In the USA, choices made by breeders or owners are likely affected by sudden changes in specific state policies, especially those related to gambling. Both of these unusual conditions—for agriculture at least—have been playing out against a background of national decline in the number of registered racehorse breeding stock. This study traces changes, between 1995 and 2017, in the geographic distribution of registered Thoroughbred and Standardbred stallions.

  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • Special Issue Horse Genetics DIRECTOR’S Message
    CENTER FOR EQUINE HEALTH SCHOOL OF VETERINARY MEDICINE • UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS SUMMER 2020 Special Issue Horse Genetics DIRECTOR’S Message s an equine genetics researcher, I am particularly excited to share A this special issue of the Horse Report with you. Inside, you will find a roadmap to many of the currently available equine genetic tests, including the AQHA “five-panel” test, and more. The equine genome sequence was published in 2009, the result of a years- long collaborative effort by the international equine research community. This resource drastically changed how researchers approach equine genetics and accelerated the rate of discovery. Increased availability and affordability allowed the application of advanced molecular tools to equine diseases and traits. As a result, genetic tests are available in a variety of breeds. Most available tests are for simple, Mendelian diseases and traits – those caused by a single gene or locus. Complex diseases and traits likely involve more than one gene and may be influenced by environmental effects. The 2018 release of a new equine genome sequence assembly, coupled with cost reductions that make whole-genome sequencing possible for large numbers of horses, are enabling research in these areas. As an equine geneticist and veterinarian, I am especially interested in applying whole genome sequencing and advanced diagnostic tools to equine precision medicine. This highly individualized approach will focus on early detection and prevention of disease, taking into account both genetic information and environmental factors. The idea is to target individuals based on their clinical condition as well as their unique body chemistry and genetics.

  • MULTIPLE REGISTRIES DEVELOP by Judy Brummer
    MULTIPLE REGISTRIES DEVELOP by Judy Brummer About the different but similar horses Regardless of which association they are registered in, most (more about that below) of the horses are descendants of horses bred in Eastern Kentucky before any of the registries existed and this accounts for the common traits among them. Until 1986, none of the associations existed. Most of the pedigrees were recorded only in the memories of their owners or breeders and were passed on only through oral histories. Blood typing and DNA proof of parentage didn’t exist back then. If an owner said a horse was from a certain sire or dam, that was the pedigree of that horse. This is true for all breeds of horse, not just the “Mountain Horses” of Eastern Kentucky. Over the years, since 1986, three registries that still exist were created. Rea and David Swan incorporated the Rocky Mountain Horse Association® (RMHA) in 1986. Other registries were created after differences in opinions arose about the breed standards being established, admission or denial of certain horses as Foundation stock, how the organizations were being managed, etc. The Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse Association (KMSHA) was incorporated in March of 1989 by Robert Robinson, Jr. and Gordon Layton incorporated the Mountain Pleasure Horse Association (MPHA) in April of 1989. Many individuals were involved in the establishment of more than one of these organizations as each association established differing guidelines for registering horses. These became the basis for the differences in the horses included in the different associations’ books. Some horses have papers from all three of the existing associations.

  • Genetic Testing As a Tool to Identify Horses with Or at Risk for Ocular Disorders
    Genetic Testing as a Tool to Identify Horses with or at Risk for Ocular Disorders Rebecca R. Bellone, PhD KEYWORDS Genetics Ocular disorders Night blindness Recurrent uveitis Squamous cell carcinoma Multiple congenital ocular anomalies Horses KEY POINTS Genetic testing can help identify horses with ocular disorders and tests are available for congenital stationary night blindness and multiple congenital ocular anomalies. Genetic testing can also help identify horses at risk for developing ocular disorders, including equine recurrent uveitis and squamous cell carcinoma. Screening horses for genetic mutations can help inform management decisions for an earlier diagnosis and better prognosis. INTRODUCTION Sequencing the genome (the totality of an organisms DNA) of a gray thoroughbred mare named Twilight has allowed the rapid development of tools and resources to aid in the understanding of the genetics of economically and medically important traits in the horse.1 Twilight’s genome has served as a reference with which to compare sequence information from other horses and has enabled finding the causative mutations for several disorders, including those that can affect ocular function. These findings allow the creation of genetic tests offered by several commercial laboratories around the globe. Use of these tests can influence clinical management and breeding decisions. Most inherited ocular disorders or those disorders with ocular manifestations are breed specific or affect breeds that are closely related. The genetics of 8 different ocular disorders have been investigated (Table 1). Approximately half of the disorders studied have an associated or causative variant identified. These disorders include congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) and equine recurrent uveitis (ERU) in Disclosure: R.R.
