Abstract excerpt
Over thousands of years, selective breeding of domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) has led to extensive genetic diversity, underscoring the need for refined genomic and immunogenetic investigations. This study presents a comprehensive analysis and biocuration of the immunoglobulin kappa light chain locus (IGK) across multiple dog breeds to identify breed-specific variations and assess their relevance to canine...
