Epigenetic models developed for plains zebras predict age in domestic horses and endangered equids

Larison et al. report epigenetic aging models in plains zebras (Equus quagga) using the epigenetic clock and epigenetic pacemaker approaches. Their epigenetic clock allows age to be accurately estimated in endangered sister species, and the pacemaker model identifies an association between inbreedin...
