Comparison of village dog and wolf genomes highlights the pivotal role of the neural crest in dog domestication

2017-03-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Dogs ( Canis lupus familiaris ) were domesticated from gray wolves between 10-40 kya in Eurasia, yet details surrounding the process of domestication remain unclear. The vast array of phenotypes exhibited by dogs mirror other domesticated animal species, a phenomenon known as the Domestication Syndrome. Here, we use signatures persisting in the dog genome to identify genes and pathways altere...
