Received my dna results

[Tobey]

I sent in my dna sample last Friday in the regular mail to the place in Florida. I received the results today already via email!! Boy was that fast!! My stallion tested tobiano heterozygous, he tested negative for LWO. So, would you think he is sabino also? Is sabino the one that they are working on a dna test for, just not out yet? Here's my stallion:

 

[Lewella]

Given his markings (or lack thereof) he is most likely both Splash White and Sabino along with tobiano.

Researchers have isolated one of the expression genes for sabino but even if the test for it is offered it will not tell you a great deal, just if your horse has that particular gene of the sabino complex. (The gene that when homozygous allows maximum white - as in totally white all over - sabino expression)

I have used the folks in Florida as well. They are fast indeed.
