STUDIES OF GENETIC VARIATION AT THE KIT LOCUS AND WHITE SPOTTING PATTERNS IN THE HORSE

There are numerous different white spotting patterns in the horse, including two of particular interest tobiano and sabino. In the mouse, genetic variation in the gene KIT causes many white spotting patterns. Due to the phenotypic similarity among white spotting patterns in horses and mice, KIT was...
