  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Two stallions with a heritable white spotting pattern with unknown genetic cause, one Arabian and one Mangalarga, were used. Phenotype scoring was performed on an additional 147 horses of unspecified breeds.
     Breeds associated:
    Design:The coding regions of the KIT and MITF genes were subjected to targeted exon sequencing to identify variants that could be associated with the white spotting phenotype. A candidate KIT mutation and SNPs in MC1R and ASIP were analyzed for association with degree of white spotting.
    Analysis:A multiple linear regression model was used.
    Software:Haploview v4.1, SAS JMP Pro v15
