Genetic characterization of the Mountain and Moorland Pony breeds and their phylogenetic relationship within and among pony breeds with special emphasis on the Newfoundland Pony. This is an international effort and the data will be the broadest spectrum ever collected and will provide a single main scientific paper focusing on the Mountain and Moorland Pony breeds. The work will provide the basis for preparing individual reports for specific breeds. From a conservation standpoint, the work will determine current genetic diversity and provide groundwork information for further study of many breeds at risk. The study results will be presented an international genetic conferences and lead to a graduate paper published in an international journal.
