José Manuel León Jurado, Doctor en Veterinaria y funcionario de la Diputación de Córdoba, en su calidad de Directores de la Tesis Doctoral de Dª Mayra Mercedes Gómez Carpio. IINFORMAN: Que la tesis titulada “EVALUACIÓN DEL ESQUEMA DE SELECCIÓN DE LA RAZA EQUINA HISPANO – ÁRABE”, realizada por Dña. Mayra Mercedes Gómez Carpio bajo nuestra dirección y asesoramiento, en el Departamento de Genética de la Universidad de Córdoba, reúne las condiciones y calidad científica necesaria para su lectura y defensa con vistas a optar al Título de Doctor. Para que conste y a los efectos oportunos, firmo el presente. Córdoba a 1 de febrero del 2016. Dr. Juan Vicente Delgado Bermejo Dr. José Manuel León Jurado TÍTULO DE LA TESIS: EVALUACIÓN DEL ESQUEMA DE SELECCIÓN DE LA RAZA EQUINA HISPANO-ÁRABE DOCTORANDO/A: MAYRA MERCEDES GÓMEZ CARPIO INFORME RAZONADO DEL/DE LOS DIRECTOR/ES DE LA TESIS (se hará mención a la evolución y desarrollo de la tesis, así como a trabajos y publicaciones derivados de la misma). La consecución de los objetivos propuestos en esta Tesis Doctoral tiene su base en el Programa de Mejora Genética del Caballo Hispano-Árabe aprobado por el MAGRAMA el (Orden APA/2129/2008, de 26 de diciembre, BOE 23, de 27 de enero de 2009). En una primera fase se iniciaron una serie contactos con la Unión Española de Ganaderos de Pura Raza Hispano-Árabe para el diseño de los protocolos de control de rendimientos, tanto en lo que a la calificación de la conformación (armonía) como la calificación y registro de los aires (paso, trote y galope) se refiere. En una segunda etapa se llevaron a cabo los análisis demográficos de la población con la finalidad de conocer las pirámides de edades, tamaños efectivos e incrementos de consanguinidad, para de esta forma poder abordar un adecuado plan de mejora genética. Una vez puestas a punto las bases de datos de genealogía y control de rendimientos se realizaron las correspondientes evaluaciones genéticas para los caracteres de armonía, paso, trote y galope, así como también la estimación de parámetros genéticos y el cálculo de las tendencias genéticas y fenotípicas, teniendo también en cuenta los niveles de sangre de los individuos de la población. En este aspecto se compararon la metodología infinitesimal y Bayesiana para determinar su eficiencia en el cálculo de parámetros genéticos como los valores de cría. De esto resultó una importante optimización de los métodos de cálculo, a la vez que presentaron avances de gran interés para la comunidad científica. En un interesante e innovador capítulo final, se propusieron la estimación de los coeficientes de adscripción molecular a la raza Árabe como covariable eficiente para corregir los efectos de heterosis en los modelos matemáticos de evaluación genética, sustituyendo los valores empíricos basados en el pedigrí utilizados hasta ahora. Este estudio es de sumo interés en una raza híbrida como esta, en la que los niveles de sangre son heterogéneos y pueden sesgar con efectos de dominancia, de epistasia y las estimaciones de los valores genéticos aditivos y, por tanto, afectar a la fiabilidad de los mismos. Entendemos que el presente trabajo por su exhaustividad, originalidad y aplicabilidad es una gran aportación para la ciencia en general y para el sector equino en especial, por ello declaramos nuestro convencimiento en su madurez para ser defendido para la obtención del grado de doctora por parte de Dª Mayra Mercedes Gómez Carpio.

  • 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.

  • Hat Should I Wear for a Horse Show? While the Answer to This Question
    hat should I wear for a horse show? While the answer to this question will W vary depending on whether you are riding in a local schooling show or competing in a rated show (e.g. the “A” rated Midstates Horse Shows in Mason City, or the “B” rated Valley Park in Des Moines), the following information should help you figure out what is appropriate. If you have any questions about whether something is appropriate, ask your trainer. This is always good advice. Helmet & Hair Whether you are jumping huge fences or just sitting on your horse waiting for your lesson to begin, accidents can happen to anyone, at any time. Thus, any time you are mounted you need to be wearing a helmet with the chin-strap fastened. Purchase an ASTM/SEI-approved helmet that hasn’t been involved in a fall. After a serious impact resulting in obvious helmet damage, discard the helmet and buy a new one. You May wish to replace it even if there is no external damage. The general rule is to replace a helmet every 5 years, whether or not it has been involved in a fall. When trying on helmets, wear your hair as you’ll wear it when riding, as this will affect the fit. Helmets should fit snugly and be worn over the top of your head, with the brim resting just above your eyebrows. Do not wear your helmet perched on top of your head, or tilted back. If your helmet wiggles when you shake your head, it is too large.
