The Power of MSTN (the 'Speed Gene')
What is MSTN?
MSTN, also known as the 'speed gene', plays a crucial role in regulating muscle growth and development in horses.
Why is MSTN important?
Understanding a horse's MSTN status can provide valuable insights into their level of precoity and potential for success in different racing distances.
How we test MSTN
Our cutting-edge genotyping technology allows us to precisely identify specific MSTN variants within a horse's DNA.
