Dominant White W20

Gene

W20 is a common variant of the KIT gene found in most breeds. On its own it adds little white, such as face and leg markings, and some W20 horses are solid; with a stronger dominant white variant on the other chromosome it usually gives an all-white horse. Two copies are viable and common.

How Dominant White W20 works

One copy is enough to show Dominant White W20; one and two copies look the same.

Alone W20 has a small effect; it mainly adds white together with other white variants.
