A 'Bully Whippet' The Whippet is a generally healthy breed, with a robust constitution. Having been bred for coursing, working, and racing for many years, it has maintained a structurally sound build. This long history of selective breeding has helped it avoid many of the physical exaggerations that often lead to health issues in other breeds.
A pedigree chart is a diagram that shows the occurrence of certain traits through different generations of a family, [1] [2] most commonly for humans, show dogs, and race horses. [ citation needed ] Definition
In this pedigree chart, G is the progeny of C and F, and C is the biological uncle of F. To find the coefficient of inbreeding of G, first locate a loop that leads from G to the common ancestor through one parent and back down to the other parent without going through the same individual twice. There are only two such loops in this chart, as ...
If the gene in question is the wildtype a superscript '+' sign is used: leuA + If a gene is mutant, it is signified by a superscript '-': leuA −; By convention, if neither is used, it is considered to be mutant. There are additional superscripts and subscripts which provide more information about the mutation: ts = temperature sensitive (leuA ts)
It is used in the breeding of both plants and animals, but is most commercially important in animal breeding to determine the true breeding value of an animal (especially males) which are used extensively for propagation of best germplasm.
A codon table can be used to translate a genetic code into a sequence of amino acids. [1] [2] The standard genetic code is traditionally represented as an RNA codon table, because when proteins are made in a cell by ribosomes, it is messenger RNA (mRNA) that directs protein synthesis.
Bedlingtons carry what is known as the greying gene, a dominant trait carried on the G locus. [7] This gene causes puppies born with black or dark brown fur to lighten to grey or liver with age. [7] The fur of the Bedlington creates a shape on the top of the dog's head known as a topknot. Although most modern breed standards call for the dog's ...
