Palomino is caused by a single allele of a dilution gene, called the cream gene, a variant on chestnut.

For Howrse: Cream.

Is Agouti responsible for making a chestnut a palomino?

No, Agouti is responsible for making a black horse into a bay, it affects the spread of black pigment. The gene responsible for making a chestnut into a palomino is the Cream gene, one copy of cream on a red / chestnut horse will create a palomino, two copies will create a cremello.

Is it possible to have purebred palominos?

Palomino isn't a breed of horse, it is a colour. Answer 2: As stated above Palomino is a color, not a breed. The Palomino horse registries are color registries, not breed associations. You get Palomino coloring by breeding a horse with the cream gene to a chestnut and you should get a palomino. Any breed that carries both the cream and chestnut colorings can produce a palomino.


The gene which causes chestnut horses to become palomino or cremello?

The common term for the gene/allele that causes a genetically chestnut horse to be a palomino or cremello is Dilution. A palomino has one of these alleles, a cremello has two.


What gene is responsble for making a chesnut horse palimo?

One copy of the cream gene produces a palomino on a genetically chestnut foal.


What two colors of horse would you want to breed if you wanted to produce the maximum numbers of palominos in the shortest amount of time?

To produce the maximum number of palominos in the shortest amount of time, you should breed a palomino horse with a chestnut horse. This pairing typically results in a 50% chance of producing palomino offspring, as the palomino is a dilution of the chestnut gene. Additionally, if you have a palomino stallion and several chestnut mares, you can maximize the number of palomino foals produced within a breeding season.


The gene which causes chestnut horses to become palomino is called what?

The common term for the gene that modifies a chestnut to a palomino is a dilution. Horseisle2 answer: Cream -Indefinite on HI2


What equine color is also part of a horse?

Palomino is both a color and a type of horse. Palomino horses have a golden coat with a white or light mane and tail.


What coat color can you get out of a chestnut mare and a palomino horse?

It depends on whether the stallion or mare is homogeneous for a certain color gene. You could have many possibilities, but a logical predication would be either palomino, chestnut, white, or bay. (Bay and chestnut being the two most common horse colors.)


What gene is responsible for making a Chestnut horse Polomino?

I think it is Cream that is what everybody else is saying.;)


What color foal do you get when you breed a chestnut horse and a palomino horse?

You could get either a palomino or a chestnut. Since a palomino is a diluted chestnut, and a chestnut has no dilution genes, it will balance out the foal's genes so that it could be either color! Good Luck!


If a black tenneesee walker was bred to a palomino quarter horse what colour would it be?

Black aaEEcrcr or aaEecrcr Palomino --eeCrcr (we don't know the genetics of this horse at the Agouti site hence the --). If the black horse is aaEEcrcr there will be no chesnut or palomino foals born from this mating. Depending on the alleles at the agouti site of the palomino horse the resulting foal could be black, smokey black, bay or buckskin. If the black horse is aaEecrcr there is a 50% chance of chestnut or palomino. The remaining 50% will be non chestnut based, again dependant on the genetics of the palomino at the agouti site. Possibly black, bay, smokey black or buckskin.
