Abstract excerpt
Canine hip dysplasia is a heritable developmental disease resulting, in part, from increased laxity in hip joints and is a precursor to degenerative joint disease. Identification of genetic markers linked to joint laxity would foster development of more accurate diagnostic methods, facilitate identification of the disease gene(s), and supplement efforts to establish physical/genetic maps of the canine genome....
