DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Textbooks of general genetics rarely mention horses. Horse breeders and those taking courses in equine studies do not find it easy to relate fruit flies, pea plants and mice to practical horse breeding. There is therefore a need for a book which provides an overview of genetic principles using horses as the primary examples. This book aims to fill this gap. The author, who has both practical and academic experience in this subject, has distilled facts and ideas to provide relevant examples in a jargon-free way, while still maintaining scientific rigor. Our knowledge of horse genes lags well behind that of other domestic animals, and the number of well-understood examples is limited. The author thus concentrates on topics such as coat color, where information is well documented, to illustrate general genetic principles. Nevertheless, the book is comprehensive in scope, covering additional topics such as parentage testing, medical genetics and gene mapping. Overall, the book is unique in providing an up-to-date review of current knowledge of horse genetics. It will be invaluable for students of equine studies, animal breeding and veterinary science, as well as for horse breeders, professionals and enthusiastic amateurs working with horses.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This text looks at the horse-breeding selection process, including the principles of heredity and genetics. The anatomy of the reproductive systems and the physiology of the oestrus cycle are discussed followed by the preparation for, and the process of covering. Pregnancy diagnosis and the stages of pregnancy are described, along with the care of the in-foal mare, foaling and care of the mare and foal. Disorders of the reproductive system, pregnancy failure and ailments of the foal are also discussed. The book concludes with information on stallion managment, the first year of the foal's life and subsequent handling and initial training.
