So many doggone traits: mapping genetics of multiple phenotypes in the domestic dog.

Human molecular genetics - 15 Oct 2012

Rimbault Maud, Ostrander Elaine A

Abstract excerpt

The worldwide dog population is fragmented into >350 domestic breeds. Breeds share a common ancestor, the gray wolf. The intense artificial selection imposed by humans to develop breeds with particular behaviors and phenotypic traits has occurred primarily in the last 200-300 years. As a result, the number of genes controlling the major differences in body size, leg length, head shape, etc. that define each dog...
