Informations générales
White spotting coat colour genotypes affect the development of melanocytes. Melanocytes produce melanin which is a dark pigment responsible for skin colour. Splashed white (SW) is a white spotting coat colour phenotype in horses characterised by loss of pigment.
Caractéristiques cliniques
SW horses are often characterised by a large broad blaze, white markings on the legs, variable white spotting on the belly and blue eyes.
Additional Information
Un plus grand risque pour la surdité chez les chevaux avec le phénotype de spotting de blanc éclaboussé et/ou de cadre overo a été décrit dans la littérature.
