Searching for "monogenic diabetes" in dogs using a candidate gene approach [0.03%]
在狗身上寻找“单基因糖尿病”采用候选基因的方法
Andrea D Short,Angela Holder,Simon Rothwell et al.
Andrea D Short et al.
Background: Canine diabetes is a common endocrine disorder with an estimated breed-related prevalence ranging from 0.005% to 1.5% in pet dogs. Increased prevalence in some breeds suggests that diabetes in dogs is influenc...
Holding back the genes: limitations of research into canine behavioural genetics [0.03%]
管住基因:犬行为遗传学研究的局限性
Diane van Rooy,Elizabeth R Arnott,Jonathan B Early et al.
Diane van Rooy et al.
Canine behaviours that are both desirable and undesirable to owners have a demonstrable genetic component. Some behaviours are breed-specific, such as the livestock guarding by maremmas and flank sucking seen in Dobermanns. While the identi...
