This work aims to evaluate the relationships between body measures of foals from birth to twelve months of age and mature animals of Mangalarga Marchador breed. Measures were body weight and measures of height, length, width, girth of animals. Corporal Index (CI), Meloscopic Index (MI), Dactilo-thoracic Index (DTI) and Weigth in Cannon Index (WCI) were used to evaluate the relationship between measures. The Eclectic System of Linear Proportions was used to evaluation the proportions between linear measures and head length. […]
