For breeders, an accurate pedigree is more than just a record – it's the foundation for informed breeding decisions.

While DNA testing provides reliable genetic information, accurate pedigree records add the family history needed to verify relationships and maintain confidence in your breeding programme.

Together, pedigrees and DNA testing can help:
🧬 Confirm parentage
🧬 Support informed breeding decisions
🧬 Maintain confidence in every generation

At Unistel, we're proud to partner with breeders by providing trusted DNA testing services that help protect the integrity of pedigree records.

Because good breeding starts with good records – and we're here to help every step of the way.

Did you know that the hair root is the most important part of a hair sample? 🐂🧬

When submitting hair samples for DNA testing, always pull hairs firmly from the tail switch so that the follicles (roots) remain attached. The DNA we need is found in the hair root - not in the hair shaft itself.

For the best chance of a successful test:
✅ Pull 20–30 hairs from the tail switch.
✅ Check that the hair roots are clearly visible.
✅ Keep the sample clean and dry.
✅ Label each sample carefully.

Avoid cutting hairs, collecting loose hairs from the ground, or touching the roots, as these can reduce DNA quality and may result in a repeat sample being required.

A few extra seconds during collection can save days of waiting later!

🐴 Muscle twitching, weakness or sudden collapse in horses? It could be genetic.

Hyperkalemic Periodic Paralysis (HYPP) is an inherited muscle disorder caused by a mutation in the SCN4A gene. Affected horses may experience episodes of muscle twitching, weakness, prolapse of the third eyelid, or, in severe cases, collapse.

HYPP is most commonly seen in American Quarter Horses, but it can also occur in American Paint Horses, Appaloosas, and other breeds with Quarter Horse bloodlines.

A simple DNA test can identify whether a horse carries the HYPP mutation, providing valuable information for owners and breeders. Genetic testing supports informed breeding decisions and helps reduce the prevalence of this inherited condition in future generations.

🧬 Healthy breeding starts with informed decisions.
