Winning Arabian racehorses might owe their success, at least in part, to three specific genes. According to a recent study, Arabians with certain genes coding for less muscle fatigue, more time-efficient energy production, and improved muscular contraction have better racing results than those that don’t.
By recognizing and selecting for these genes, breeders could fine-tune their production techniques, which could lead to fewer unsuccessful racehorses that often end up removed from the racing industry. “Although slower than environmental interventions (such as changes in management and training), genetic changes are known to accumulate over generations and, thus, genetic research provides an avenue for more permanent change,” said Brandon Velie, BSc, MSc, PhD, of the Equine Genetics and Genomics Group at the University of Sydney. ....
