Genetic Diseases
GENETIC DISEASESSection 1)
ANIMAL GENETICS
Genetic Diseases
Limitation: Some of these diseasesonly appear in some horse breedsso in some cases testing for a certain disease is of no value for the horse breeder.
The laboratory tests for all deseases at once, so no extra costis caused by testign for diseasesnot likely to appear in this breed.
SECTION 1)Tests for the presence or carrier status of 13 genetic diseases:
ANIMAL GENETICS
Genetic Diseases
Disease explanation and recommendation
Explanation about the disease
Genetic result
Disease risk scale bar
Other effects like coat colour scale bar

Genetic Diseases
Disease explanation and recommendation
Example: The genetic mutation causing CSNB (night blindness) also causes spottedfur colour.
1 genetic mutation = Spotted & healthy2 genetic mutations = Night blindness

ANIMAL GENETICS
Nutrition
This section helps to:
Step 1) Determine your Horse‘s weight (if it can not be weighed)
Step 2) Determining if your horse needs to gain or lose weight
Step 3) Determining your horse's feed requirement
Step 4) Determining the requirement for supplements

How to feed your horse
HOW TO FEEDSection 3)
ANIMAL GENETICS
Step 3) Determining your horse's feed requirement
Certain genetic diseases require specific feeding regiemes• HYPP > less than 1.1% potassium• PSSM > Only certain carbohydrate sources suitable
If the horse suffers from one of these diseases: Warning of feed types

Exercise
How much exercise? (genetic diseases influence this)

Malignant hyperthermia (genetic disease) can make some medication dangerous for your horse!
