Intrinsically ball retrieving wolf puppies reveal standing ancestral variation for human-directed play behaviour

2019-08-23

Abstract excerpt

Domestication dramatically alters phenotypes. Standing variation among ancestral populations often drives phenotypic change during domestication, but some changes are caused by novel mutations. Dogs ( Canis familiaris ) engage in interspecific play with humans and it has specifically been suggested that the ability to interpret social-communicative behaviour expressed by humans is a novel dog-specific skill. Thus...
