Polydactyly in a Murgese horse : a case report / F. Giofré, V. Caracciolo, M. Zanotti, M. Polli, A. M. De Giovanni. - In: JOURNAL OF EQUINE VETERINARY SCIENCE. - ISSN 0737-0806. - 24:6(2004), pp. 248-250. [10.1016/j.jevs.2004.05.003 ]
Abstract:
For the first time, a case of atavic polydactyly is described in a Murgese breed foal born in Calabria, Italy. Cytogenetic analysis has not shown up any abnormality, and neither pedigree study supports the hypothesis of a recessive gene. Polydactyly, in this case, may be attributed to a dominant autosomal gene with incomplete penetrance or to abnormal fetal development due to external causes.
