They are characterized by generalized scaly and hyperkeratotic skin (Oji et al., <span>2010</span>). In humans, over 69 genes have been associated with different forms of ichthyosis, grouped into non-syndromic ichthyoses with the phenotypic expression of the disorder only seen in the skin, and syndromic ichthyoses that show additional organ involvement (Gutiérrez-Cerrajero et al., <span>2023</span>; Uitto et al., <span>2020</span>). Further subdivision into epidermolytic and non-epidermolytic ichthyoses is based on the presence or absence of light microscopic findings of vacuoles and lysis of keratinocytes (Mauldin, <span>2013</span>). In dogs, several breed-specific ichthyoses have been described, and, to date, causal variants in nine different genes have been identified (Affolter et al., <span>2022</span>; Bauer et al., <span>2017</span>; Briand et al., <span>2019</span>; Casal et al., <span>2017</span>; Credille et al., <span>2005</span>, <span>2009</span>; Grall et al., <span>2012</span>; Kiener et al., <span>2022</span>; Kiener, Åhman, et al., <span>2023</span>; Kiener, Castilla, et al., <span>2023</span>; Metzger et al., <span>2015</span>).

To ascertain the efficacy of this transition, it is imperative to evaluate the performance of parentage testing using SNPs in juxtaposition with short tandem repeats (STRs). As per ISAG's recommendation, we used an equine genotyping-by-sequencing panel with 144 SNPs for this purpose. Equine parentage is currently realized using 16 microsatellites (STRs) excluding the LEX3 marker. In this study, 1074 horses were genotyped using the 144 SNPs panel, including 432 foals, 414 mares, and 228 stallions, from five different breeds: 293 Arabians, 167 Barbs, 189 Thoroughbreds, 73 Anglo-Arabians, and 352 Arabian-Barbs. As a result, two SNPs markers were eliminated from the panel system due to inconsistent amplification across all examined individuals leaving 142 SNPs markers for analysis. A comparative analysis between SNPs and STRs markers revealed that the mean expected heterozygosity was 0.457 for SNPs and 0.76 for STRs, while the mean observed heterozygosity stood at 0.472 for SNPs and 0.72 for STRs. Furthermore, the probability of identity was calculated to be 5.722 × 10<sup>−57</sup> for SNPs and 1.25 × 10<sup>−15</sup> for STRs markers. In alignment with the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium in polyploids test, 110 out of the total SNPs were consistent with the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium in polyploids test (<i>p</i> &gt; 0.05). Employing both SNPs and STRs markers, the mean polymorphic information content was discerned to be 0.351 for SNPs and 0.72 for STRs. The cumulative exclusion probabilities for SNP markers exceeded 99.99%, indicating that the 142 SNPs panel might be adequate for parentage testing. In contrast, when utilizing STRs markers, the combined average exclusion probabilities for one and both parents were determined to be 99.8% and 99.9%, respectively. Our comprehensive study underscores the potential of SNPs in equine parentage verification, especially when compared to STRs in terms of exclusion probabilities. As a corollary, the application of SNPs for parentage verification and identification can significantly contribute to the conservation initiative for the five Moroccan horse breeds.
