Snöfall – bildbomb
Igårkväll snöade det rejält när jag och Sandra var ute i stallet. Det blev någon form av dressyr på Calinka och med tanke på vädret gick det väldigt bra.
Idag snöade det fortfarande bra…
Today it was still snowing…

Så, hängt med ända hit?
Nu kommer det roligaste (enligt mig). Att använda informationen från tidigare.
Vad kan det bli för färg på kommande föl?
Först har vi Bunny. Hon har (troligen) genuppsättning EeaaZzrrnrn.
Hingsten hon betäcktes med, Union Blue, är: EEaazzRnrn
Det ger följande möjligheter:
EeaaZzRnrn – silversvartskimmel
EEaaZzRnrn – silversvartskimmel
EeaazzRnrn – svartskimmel
EEaazzRnrn – svartskimmel
Eeaazzrnrn – svart
EEaazzrnrn – svart
EeaaZzrnrn – silversvart
EEaaZzrnrn – silversvart
Chocolate roan/silverblack roan |
Sedan har vi Percy med genuppsättning: E?AaZzCrcrrnrn
Pepper som hon betäckts med: E?aazzcrcrRnrn
Nu gäller det att hålla tungan rätt i munnen…
Här blir det många kombinationer:
E?AaZzCrcrrnrn
E?AazzCrcrrnrn
E?AaZzcrcrrnrn
E?AaZzcrcrRnrn
E?AazzcrcrRnrn

E?aaZzCrrnrn
E?AaZzCrrnrn
E?AaZzCrrnrn
E?AaZzCrrnrn
E?AaZzCrrnrn
E?AaZzCrrnrn
Då behövs bara en översättning till svenska av färgerna:

So what do we know about the colors of Percy’s offsping? Well, there is a lot of different possabilitys, where most of them is unusal in Sweden and it is more likely that the offsping get any of them instead of becomeing black, bay or chestnut. And, that it is not at all impossible thtat the offsping is going to need some genetic testing to determing its true color as it is not always easy to see in a horse with many different genes.
Därmed är det 50% chans att avkomman får silvergenen, och 50% chans att avkomman får ett anlag att bli svartbaserad, 50% att det får ett anlag för att bli rödbaserad.
Percy
Therefore her offsping have a 50% chanse to get the silver gene, and a 50% chans to get a blackbased coat from its mother as well as a 50% chans of getting a red based gene.
I planned to start a shorter post about my horses colors and what color possibility that would give when breeding my horses. Now I have got two post planned/prepared and found out that I needed a short start, introducing some basic facts for those that isn’t to much into genetics… So, here it comes:
All individuals have a double set up of genes. One copy from the mother and one from the father.
Different traits is inherited in different ways, sometimes many genes works together to create the end results, sometimes it is one single gene, and sometimes both genes at the same spot contribute to the result. An example (a little simplified):
Base color in horses
The horse coat is either pigmented by either eumelanin that gives a black base color or pheomelanin that gives the chestnut typ of color, the red based horses. All other colors are created by specific genes that interacts and changes the way the colors is expressed.
Writing gene setup
When telling about the genetic setup of an individual there is a specific way to do that. A dominant trait is written with a capital letter. In the example with the grey color above, that means that the greying gene is written G as it is dominant. As all horses has two genes of each type, or at each locus there is two possibility, either GG or Gg. g is how the recessive gene is written. Both those horses looks grey. The horse that isn’t grey is instead gg at the grey locus and that is there for usually not mentioned.
Why is it interesting to know about the genetic setup? It matters while breeding. A horse that is GG is only getting grey offspring as it always gives a G to the offspring. (And the horse with one G is going to be grey). The horse with Gg instead is only going to get 50% offspring that goes grey and 50% that doesn’t if crossed with a non grey horse. A horse with two copies of the same type at a locus is called homozygous for that trait and is always going to pass that trait to the offspring. A horse with Gg, two different types of the gene is called heterozygous.
(Extra:
Eumelanin and pheomelanin is also the reason for pigmentation in many other animals and humans.
Some scientific papers says that a homozygos grey horse grey faster than the one with one copy of the grey gene, so it might be possible to some extent to visually distingusih between greys wioth one or two copys of the gene.)
