Summary
Genetic and mathematical studies enable us to state that the 18 horse blood factors belong to at least 8 genetic systems.
The A system contains 6 blood factors: A 1, F, H1, H2, I and O. The J system contains 4 blood factors: E, G, J1, and J2. The D system contains 2 blood factors: D1 and D2.
The blood factors C, K, Fr4 and Fr5 are bi-allelic.
A relationship exists between the blood factors Fr1 and Fr3.
The genes that determine the horse’s blood factors are located at at least 8 loci.
