Effectiveness of breeding guidelines for reducing the prevalence of syringomyelia.

The Veterinary record - 1 Jan 2000

Knowler S P, McFadyen A K, Rusbridge C

Abstract excerpt

Several toy breed dogs are predisposed to syringomyelia (SM), a spinal cord disorder, characterised by fluid-filled cavitation. SM is a complex trait with a moderately high heritability. Selective breeding against SM is confounded by its complex inheritance, its late onset nature and high prevalence in some breeds. This study investigated the early outcome of existing SM breeding guidelines. Six hundred and...
