Title: Genome-wide association study of osteochondrosis in the tarsocrural joint of Dutch Warmblood horses identifies susceptibility loci on chromosomes 3 and 10. Author: Orr N, Hill EW, Gu J, Govindarajan P, Conroy J, van Grevenhof EM, Ducro BJ, van Arendonk JA, Knaap JH, van Weeren PR, Machugh DE, Ennis S, Brama PA. Journal: Anim Genet; 2013 Aug; 44(4):408-12. PubMed ID: 23278111. Abstract: Equine osteochondrosis is a developmental joint disease that is a significant source of morbidity affecting multiple breeds of horse. The genetic variants underlying osteochondrosis susceptibility have not been established. Here, we describe the results of a genome-wide association study of osteochondrosis using 90 cases and 111 controls from a population of Dutch Warmblood horses. We report putative associations between osteochondrosis and loci on chromosome 3 (BIEC2-808543; P = 5.03 × 10(-7) ) and chromosome 10 (BIEC2-121323; P = 2.62 × 10(-7) ).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
