Horse Colour Testing Uk

Coat Colour and Pattern Testing Coat Colour and Pattern Testing We offer a range of tests designed to detect the genetic mutations that are responsible for certain coat colours and / or patterns. Knowing the genetic status of your horse can be helpful if breeding a particular colour or pattern is a goal. Using a mane or tail hair sample, Animal Genetics UK can accurately determine the potential foal colours of any horse.

There is no 'one size fits all' colour test, the tests required to determine a horse's breeding potential are decided based upon the visual colour of the specimen. Each horse's colour testing requirements are unique. LABOKLIN has over 15 years experience in animal genetic testing.

We provide extensive range of genetic tests covering large number of breeds. We develop our own testing techniques that implements the latest advances in molecular biology to provide reliable, accurate and precise results. Complete genetic test "Pro Package" for horses If you're someone who wants to know everything possible about your horse, the "Pro Package" is made for you.

It offers comprehensive DNA testing, covering all coat colours, health conditions, and potential risks, including susceptibility to Kissing Spines. Plus, it includes the performance panel with height prediction. Hi All Just wondered where is the best place to get colour testing done - unless you are going to tell me x2 bays black then I wont waste my money.

New boy looks very black, but is registered as dark bay so was interested to see. Thanks. Description The 'Equine Coat Colour Testing' service from Animal Genetics analyses your horse's DNA to determine its coat colour.

Features 17 different tests available Can be used to predict the coat colour of offspring. Equine Coat Color Testing Base Color Every horse has a base color, which can be black, bay, or red. This is controlled by the Extension (Red/Black Factor) and Agouti genes.

The Extension gene controls the production of black or red pigment throughout the coat. The allele for black color (E) is dominant over the red allele (e), so a horse only needs one copy of the black allele to appear black. Horse Color Genetics Etalon DNA tests include over 60 equine coat color and pattern tests for all horse colors, patterns, white variations, and modifiers across all breeds.

We are continually expanding our equine color testing offerings as new discoveries are made and published. Our veterinary laboratory provides a complete range of diagnostic tests for veterinary surgeons, breeders, sanctuaries, zoos, universities, laboratories, state departments and animal owners throughout Europe. Since 1989, Laboklin has been providing wide array of diagnostic services in the areas of genetics, haematology, serology, microbiology, pathology, allergy, hygiene and molecular biology.

DNA Profiling and Parentage Testing DNA Profiling and Parentage Testing We offer DNA profiling using the International Society of Animal Genetics (ISAG) approved marker panels for horses, which can be used to confirm or exclude parentage of your horse.
