Parentage/Genetic Marker Report

This DNA-based parentage test uses microsatellite marker analysis to compare the DNA profile of an offspring to the profiles of possible parents.

White Pattern Panel 2

Horse with white patterning

The White Pattern Panel 2 bundles together all of the white coat color/pattern diagnostic tests that the VGL offers.

White Pattern Panel 1

Horse with white patterning

The White Pattern Panel 1 offers diagnostic tests for a variety of white coat color patterns.

Horse Coat Color Panel

Herd of horses with different coat colors

The horse coat color panel bundles together several diagnostic tests to evaluate coat color.

Horse Embryo Pre-Implantation Genetic Diagnosis

Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is a procedure used to screen embryos recovered after uterine flush to determine sex and genetic traits through DNA testing prior to implantation in the uterus.

Tobiano

Tobiano is a white spotting pattern characterized by white on the body that crosses the topline.

Red Factor

The extension gene, or red factor, determines whether a horse will have a chestnut base coat color or a black or bay base coat color.

Gray

The gray gene causes progressive depigmentation of the hair, often resulting in a color that is almost completely white by 6-8 years of age. The individual gray test will determine the number of copies of the gray allele (zygosity). The coat color panel tests detect presence or absence of the gray allele.
