Colours and marks are just a small part of teaching about the horse's exterior. Are there any possible future discoveries in this field?
At the workshop, we will talk about what is new since 2017 and which directions horse breeders can follow in the future.
The last twenty years have seen a number of discoveries in animal genetics, leading to the identification and description of entire groups of colours previously unknown to specialists. Almost any colour can now be identified and clarified with the help of DNA analysis. The year 2022 marks the 10th anniversary of the publication of the 2nd edition of «Horse Colours», the most complete monograph in Russian on the subject. What discoveries have been made in this field since then, will be told by the author of the book, Vera Aleksandrovna Kurskaya, candidate of agricultural sciences, registrar of horses bearing allele Z in Russia and its ‘near-abroad’, hippologist, the author of «History of horse in the history of mankind» (2016), «Horse Genetics« (2017), «Horse Color Explored» (2017).
