New mutation. Probably Dominant White. Which is a series of different mutations that are all lumped in as one. Each DW founder has a different KIT mutation, and probably should have completely different names, not just DW1, DW2, and so on.
Not related to the gray mutation. Breeding DW's to gray doesn't give you a whiter horse.

Now that folks are more educated about the existence of DW, more foals are surviving, and not being put down right after birth, as is the case with lethal white foals. And this isn't a shot against vets. The kindest thing that can be done for a lethal white foal is a quick painless death.

TheDW mutation seems to happen quite a lot. Just in TB's there seems to be a new mutation showing up every 4-5 years. This doesn't count DW's bred from existing DW horses.

Jorge do you have a list of white horse founders along with their birth year?

Never mind. I read it wrong. I thought those were all founding mutations, but they're not.

Whats the current info on Airdrie Apache? Is he a DW, or something else?

He's DW, they just haven't been able to isolate his mutation yet.

Which DW do you have? And are you talking about Airdrie Apache?


There are several possibilities. If your mare is from AA, then she would be DWx, same as AA. And then what happens depends on if this version of DW is lethal in the early stages of development. If it is NOT, then you have the standard 1:2:1 split. 1 solid, 2 that have one copy of the DW gene, and 1 that has two copies of the DW gene. If this version of DW IS lethal, then the double copy drops out--they don't live to implant, 1 solid, two with one copy.

If your mare is from another DW line, then you could have the above chances, but potentially end up with a live foal that has one copy of two different DW genes. Like a cremello carries two copies of the cream gene.

I don't think anyone knows how the different versions of DW interact. There might be versions that aren't embryonic lethals, or aren't with selected other DW's.
The information from the White Horse Ranch folks, not DW TB lines, indicate that their version works like most roans--double copies don't survive to implant.

Her DW is from Puchilingui, not AA.

At this time it is unknown. So far we have not tracked any DWs who were bred to other DWs outside their line. It likely depends on which exons of KIT the individual mutations modify. Puchilingui's line is one that modifies less than some other lines so it could be possible. It depends on which exons are modified with DUO's mutation. IMO the worst case scenario is that if the embryo doesn't inherit both DW and they are not compatible she slips very early or the fetus never even implants (heartbeat check at 25 days would show no fetus or a degrading one). You should have no concerns about a foal that dies after birth as in lethal white overo. That won't happen with KIT mutations. Not knowing what DUO's specific mutation is it's hard to say what your chances are, but I think it would be well worth the chance in this case.

There are other whites too, mostly tovero whites or just whites that result from carrying too many white patterns (mostly in paints of course) and unfortunately a lot of those were probably put down when they were born when the owner and vet thought they were sparing it a slow death. Test, test, test!!! And if not, at least wait and see if it gets sick! I don't know how long the test takes now, maybe they can rush one through.

Imagine how many DW foals have been knocked in the head in the past?

Most of the breeders I know that have ever had a question if one was lethal or not have just had an ultrasound done. Quicker than trying to test.

Thanks...I was just really thinking out loud....I am afraid of DW and would or will freak out when a foal comes out like that....

Yes, my mare is not from AA
