Dog DNA and canine genomics
Genome sequencing reveals how selective breeding shaped dog diversity and helps identify genetic risk factors for disease.
The dog genome project
Dogs exhibit remarkable diversity in size, behavior, and disease susceptibility. Genome-wide sequencing enables researchers to map genetic variants across breeds.
Applications of canine genomics
- Identification of inherited disease mutations
- Comparative studies with human genetics
- Noninvasive diagnostics using DNA from urine or saliva
Advance veterinary genomics
We support animal and comparative genomics projects.
