Copy number variations in Friesian horses and genetic risk factors for insect bite hypersensitivity

Abstract Background Many common and relevant diseases affecting equine welfare have yet to be tested regarding structural variants such as copy number variations (CNVs). CNVs make up a substantial proportion of total genetic variability in populations of many species, resulting in more sequence diff...
