Canine-derived cosmid probes containing microsatellites can be used in physical mapping of arctic fox (Alopex lagopus) and Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides) genomes

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on genome mapping in Candiae species. The authors report that their study of the chromosomal localization of canine-derived cosmid probes which contain microsatellites in the arctic fox and Chinese raccoon dog genomes has been carried out via the use of in situ fluorescence and in situ hybridization.

Genetic structure of susceptibility traits for hip dysplasia and microsatellite informativeness of an outcrossed canine pedigree

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on hip dysplasia quantitative trait locus maping. The authors describe the development of the outcrossed canine pedigree for this mapping carried out via the breeding of dysplastic Labrador retrievers to trait-free greyhounds.

Analysis of Allele Fidelity, Polymorphic Information Content, and Density of Microsatellites in a Genome-Wide Screening for Hip Dysplasia in a Crossbreed Pedigree

Article Abstract:

Normal Greyhounds and dysplastic Labrador Retrievers were cross-bred to map quantitative trait loci for the disease. Discussion also includes factors that influence detection power regarding genotyping errors.
