  • Identification of Horses Booklet
    colours & marking booklet_10366 21/7/08 14:32 Page 1 1 Introduction The first edition of this booklet was made available to the veterinary profession in 1930. It was in the form of a report from a Sub-Committee, which had been set up by the Council of the RCVS in 1928, to prepare a system of description, colours and markings, etc. of horses for the purpose of identifying individual animals. Since that date there have been several revised editions. Amendments have been made in the light of experience and in response to the changing demands of the equine industry. The significant increase in the international movement of horses and the insistence by a growing number of organisations which hold shows, gymkhanas, events and other competitive functions that horse owners should supply proof of vaccination against equine influenza, have resulted in greater numbers of practitioners being asked to supply the relevant certification. Additionally DEFRA legislation came into force in 2004 requiring all horses to have a passport containing an accurate set of markings. This latest edition (published May 2008) has been produced by Weatherbys, in conjunction with the RCVS and BEVA, in part as a result of the increased use internationally of microchip transponders to identify horses. Nevertheless, the passport, with its recording of a horse’s colour and markings, remains the essential means of identification for Thoroughbred and Non-Thoroughbred horses and ponies under the implementation Regulation of the EC Directives (Commission Regulation (EC) No. 504/2008 of 6 June 2008 and Council Directives 90/426/EEC and 90/427 EEC.

  • Color Coat Genetics
    Color CAMERoatICAN ≤UARTER Genet HORSE ics Sorrel Chestnut Bay Brown Black Palomino Buckskin Cremello Perlino Red Dun Dun Grullo Red Roan Bay Roan Blue Roan Gray SORREL WHAT ARE THE COLOR GENETICS OF A SORREL? Like CHESTNUT, a SORREL carries TWO copies of the RED gene only (or rather, non-BLACK) meaning it allows for the color RED only. SORREL possesses no other color genes, including BLACK, regardless of parentage. It is completely recessive to all other coat colors. When breeding with a SORREL, any color other than SORREL will come exclusively from the other parent. A SORREL or CHESTNUT bred to a SORREL or CHESTNUT will yield SORREL or CHESTNUT 100 percent of the time. SORREL and CHESTNUT are the most common colors in American Quarter Horses. WHAT DOES A SORREL LOOK LIKE? The most common appearance of SORREL is a red body with a red mane and tail with no black points. But the SORREL can have variations of both body color and mane and tail color, both areas having a base of red. The mature body may be a bright red, deep red, or a darker red appearing almost as CHESTNUT, and any variation in between. The mane and tail are usually the same color as the body but may be blonde or flaxen. In fact, a light SORREL with a blonde or flaxen mane and tail may closely resemble (and is often confused with) a PALOMINO, and if a dorsal stripe is present (which a SORREL may have), it may be confused with a RED DUN.

  • French Bulldog Coat Colour Genetics - Feb 2008
    FRENCH BULLDOG COAT COLOUR GENETICS - FEB 2008 by Dr Karen Hedberg BVSc This is a very interesting field that is undergoing some changes as the actual genes that affect colour are beginning to be located on the chromosomes. DNA specific tests can now be carried out for the presence of most of the colour alleles, particularly where one wants to know if there are unwanted dilution factors hiding within individuals. While it can look very complicated, try to understand the subject and thus produce the colours you want from matings, and not waste litters with incorrect colours. Knowledge of your proposed breeding pairs‟ colour genetics can help maximise desired colour combinations. General information Melanocytes are the cells that produce skin and hair colour and they are derived from neural crest cells. These cells arise along the back very early in foetal development and then give rise to a number of cell types, including a large proportion of the peripheral nervous system. If there is a decrease in the number of neural crest cells, other cell types are favored, leading to a reduction in melanocyte formation (see below). The melanoblasts (immature colour cells) migrate from the dorsal midline over the surface of the body, so the last areas to be reached are the feet, chest and muzzle (ie where you are more likely to see white toes, etc). Neural crest cells also form part of the nervous system for the inner ear and eye. Animals selected for extreme white spotting (eg. Dalmatians) can have hearing and/or vision problems in other extreme white patterns (merle series).
