Ancestry-inclusive dog genomics challenges popular breed stereotypes
Behavioral genetics in dogs has focused on modern breeds, which are isolated subgroups
with distinctive physical and, purportedly, behavioral characteristics. We interrogated breed …

Five genetic variants explain over 70% of hair coat pheomelanin intensity variation in purebred and mixed breed domestic dogs
In mammals, the pigment molecule pheomelanin confers red and yellow color to hair, and
the intensity of this coloration is caused by variation in the amount of pheomelanin. Domestic …
