A genome-wide investigation of insidious uveitis in Appaloosa horses
In addition to the LP locus, our investigation identified a locus on chromosome X with a significant association to insidious uveitis in Appaloosas. Replication testing in an independent cohort is necessary to determine if this locus is indeed a causal risk locus.
