Abstract

The present invention relates to methods for detecting a genetic deletion at the SHOX locus of a horse, where the presence of such a genetic deletion indicates that the horse is a carrier of disease-causing mutation that can lead to skeletal atavism. The invention further provides nucleic acid primers and probes for use in methods for detecting the presence or absence of disease-causing genetic deletion at the SHOX locus of a horse.
