Dun gene – Wikipedia

The dun gene is a dilution gene that affects both red and black pigments in the coat color of a horse. Dun lightens most of the body while leaving the mane, tail, legs, and primitive markings (also called dun factors) dark. The lightening effect is caused by pigment only being placed in a part of each hair. Dun was the original color of horses, but most horses today are non-dun.

The report provided fresh evidence of the growing financial strain on U.S. farmers hit by the trade war, low commodity prices and a series of natural disasters including spring floods in the Midwest. With rural voters a key part of Trump’s electoral coalition, it also underscores the political pressure to conclude the China trade war as U.S. negotiators begin another round of talks in Beijing this week.
