Dear Fjord Digest, In addition to our study on the inheritance of white markings in the Fjord, we are also looking at the Fjord pedigree/population as a whole. Being the Fjord breed has such an excellent record of pedigrees, it is ideal for looking at population genetics. As we are interested in looking at the Fjord population from a broader perspective, we wanted to begin by obtaining some incite from Fjord breeders/owners. In your own opinion, which do you feel more attention/emphasis should be placed on when making breeding decisions, the stallion or the mare? You are more than welcome to reply to us directly, either at my email (robin.holl...@murraystate.edu) or the professor I am working with (everett.we...@murraystate.edu), or if you would like to discuss the topic reply here on the digest. We would just like to have a feel for how different people who work with Fjords feel about the roles stallions and mares play in breeding decisions. Thanks you so much! Happy Fjording! :) -- Robin L Holland 8510 Springer College Murray KY, 42071 570-234-4904 Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw Classified Ads: http://tinyurl.com/5b5g2f
