It can also mean disaster for your horse if he is sensitive to how he metabolizes the sugars in grass. During the Spring, sugars in the grass your horse consumes can spike at up to 30%!!! Thats an incredible amount of sugar when you factor in that our horses digestive system are designed to eat 16-17hrs a day.Founder is a word that becomes a common term thrown around during this time of year.ut in the case of the pasture horses, it can be a lot of work to get your horse healthy again. The best case scenario is a dry lot. A dirt paddock with no grass for teh horse to keep feeding the bacteria explosion and causing more problems for their feet. Hay, water, and a good vitamin/mineral supplement. THATS IT!!!
While an organism with complete absence of melanin is called an albino (UK /aelËbiËnoÊ/ , Ã¦lËbiËnoÊ OR /us/) aelËbaÉªnoÊ Ã¦lËbaÉªnoÊ an organism with only a diminished amount of melanin is described as leucistic. Or albinoid albinism is associated with a number of, vision defects such, as photophobia nystagmus. and amblyopia
These genes are names for their recessive mutant phenotypes, so mice homozygous mutant at the albino locus have no pigmentation (white fur and pink eyes) and heterozygotes and wild type for albino have pigmentation (dark fur and eyes). The albino gene product, tyrosinase, is necessary for the synthesis of all pigment. Mice have two different pigments in each hair, yellow at the tip and black in the rest of the hair. In albino mutants, neither pigment is made. The nonagouti gene product is necessary for the production of the yellow pigment, so mutant nonagouti mice have black hair.
