Gene
The genetic mutation that causes pangaré is currently unknown. Research suggests a region regulating the EDN3 gene may be responsible for pangaré.
In our game, Horse Reality, pangaré is caused by the dominant PA-allele of the hidden pangaré gene. For any color we don't know the genetics of yet, we have to come up with something to make it work in-game. Which means working with just observations and theories. Since pangaré isn't testable yet in real life, it also isn't testable in game.
Presence in horses
Pangaré appears to be mainly present in ponies, draft horses and more “primitive” breeds; it is way less common in warmblood or sport-type horses.
