Genes affecting coat colour and pattern in domestic dogs: a review.

Animal genetics - 1 Dec 2007

Schmutz S M, Berryere T G

Abstract excerpt

Tremendous progress has been made in identifying genes involved in pigmentation in dogs in the past few years. Comparative genomics has both aided and benefited from these findings. Seven genes that cause specific coat colours and/or patterns in dogs have been identified: melanocortin 1 receptor, tyrosinase related protein 1, agouti signal peptide, melanophilin, SILV (formerly PMEL17), microphthalmia-associated...
