Re: [RC] [RC] tail mare? - Jean DiazOn Sat, 5 Jun 2004 20:43:16 -0600 (MDT), heidi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <heidi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: And with mitochondrial DNA, geneticists have been able to prove that some mares in rather far-flung programs actually have the same "tail female" back beyond our pedigrees. There are several pairings between Crabbet/Blunt founding mares and Davenport mares, for instance, which shows that they originally were derived from a common female ancestor at some point. The Crabbet foundress Rodania (Kuhayla Rodania in strain) matches the Davenport import *Wadduda (Saqlawi al'Abd in strain), and the Davenport mare *Reshan (Kuhaylan Haifi in strain, all my horses trace to her in tail female) matches the Crabbet mare Basilisk (strain of Saqlawi Jedran). There are probably more, but my copy of the paper that I think discusses these is at home... somewhere.
