Abstract

The present study was carried out to investigate the blood markers of the Korean native horse. A total number of 158 horses were tested using microhaemagglutination with 11D system reagents (Da, Db, Dc, Dd, De, Df, Dg, Dh, Dk, Dm and Dn). Of the 158 horses, 3 horses showed an unusual D system phenogroups; these phenogroups may be silent (null) alleles, De or Dk and Dc, respectively. Dacdfgm, Dacdfgmn, and Ddegmn phenogroups were recognized. These results present basic information for detecting the genetic markers among the Korean native and alien horses.
