Based on a case study of a Quarter Horse stallion showing clinical and histological signs compatible with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) of unknown genetic etiology, i.e., not associated with the PPIB_c.115G>A variant responsible for Hereditary Equine Regional Dermal Asthenia (HERDA), nor the PLOD1_c.2032G>A variant responsible for Warmblood Fragile Foal Syndrome type 1 (WFFS). These two di…
O programa desta Conferência será composto pela Cerimônia de Abertura, 80 horas de Palestras Regulares (divididas entre as duas grandes áreas: Clínica e cirurgia de equídeos e Reprodução de equídeos), fóruns temáticos, exposição permanente dos trabalhos científicos em forma de painel durante todo o evento e 4 h de apresentação/arguição dos melhores trabalhos científicos em cada uma das gr…
In Brazil, the production of mules with a comfortable gait involves primarily the breeding of marching saddle mules. This is achieved by crossing gaited Pêga donkeys with horses from the Mangalarga Marchador and Campolina breeds. The DMRT3:g.22999655C>A SNP is implicated in regulating gait phenotypes observed in various horse breeds, including the batida (CC) and picada (CA) gaits found i…

The vertebrae's eye development is a complex process and several genes coordinate and determine the tissues formation. Congenital microphthalmia is characterized by a small ocular globe in newborns which can be associated with other ocular abnormalities in different mammal species. In humans, microphthalmia, anophthalmia, and coloboma are highly variable, since many genes present variants…
Horse breeding industry in Brazil has great social and economic relevance, generating millions in revenue and thousands of jobs. Foals, especially during the neonatal period, represent a highly vulnerable group to diseases such as diarrhea, which affects approximately 80% of them within the first six months of life. This condition, characterized by fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base imbala…
Eye development in mammals is a highly complex process, and even minor disruptionscan lead to a range of congenital anomalies. Among the most common aremicrophthalmia (reduced eyeball size), anophthalmia (absence of the eyeball), andcoloboma (incomplete closure of the optic fissure). While several genes have beenimplicated in these malformations, those related to transcription factors are…

Equestrian sport is an important segment of Brazilian horse breeding industry. The Quarter Horse (QH) is one of the main horses used in sporting activities in Brazil. Horse performance may be influenced by muscle diseases. About a third of these diseases are resulting from deleterious genetic variants, such as hyperkalemic periodic paralysis, malignant hyperthermia, polysaccharide storage…
Canine degenerative myelopathy (CDM) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects the spinal cord, characterized by general proprioceptive ataxia and spastic paresis and associated with the SOD1:c.118G>A mutation in more than 124 canine breeds. Clinical signs start late, being observed in animals from the age of eight, and in most cases, tutors opt for early euthanasia of their…
One of the main objectives of breeders and researchers, in beef cattle, is toimprove the growth and weight gain of the animals and to improve carcasscharacteristics and quality, with meat tenderness being one of the factors forconsumer satisfaction. In the Brahman breed (Bos taurus indicus), the maingenetic markers, or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), that influence meattenderness a…
