Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Andrea Giontella"
- Andrea Giontella's recent research focuses on the genetic and morphological evaluation of horse populations, particularly emphasizing the evaluation of the Maremmano horse and the genetic diversity in Italian breeds through various methodologies including factor analysis and high-throughput genotyping.
- His studies also explore the epigenetic modifications in sports horses during training, shedding light on how environmental factors influence genetic expression, specifically cytosine methylation in Thoroughbreds, a key breed in equine sports.
- Giontella investigates Y-chromosome haplotypes among Italian horse breeds and the genetic variability in specific breeds such as the Sardinian Anglo-Arab, highlighting the importance of genetic background in horse breeding and their historical significance in human civilization.
