Canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (CIPF) is a chronic fibrotic lung disease that is observed at a higher frequency in the West Highland White Terrier dog breed (WHWT) and may have molecular pathological overlap with human lung fibrotic disease. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in the WHWT using whole genome sequencing (WGS) to discover genetic variants associated with CIPF. Saliva-derived...
