Equine Color Genetics, Fourth Edition presents a detailed examination of the color variation in horses and donkeys and the genetic mechanisms that produce color variations.

• Thoroughly covers the basic colors in horses, including bay, chestnut, black, and brown
• Details the genetic basis of the colors built from the basic coat color, including dilutions and white patterning
• Provides an explanation of genetic mechanisms that determine coat color
• Presents a thorough revision and update, including new advances in molecular genetics, biochemistry,...
