  2. Labrador Retriever coat colour genetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labrador_Retriever_coat...

    The interplay between these two genes determines the colour of a Labrador Retriever, and is widely used as an example of epistasis. If a dog possesses the dominant phenotype for the extension allele (genotype EE or Ee), then it will display the fur colouration determined by its brown locus genotype, while a dog with the recessive extension ...

  3. Dilution gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_gene

    The dilute gene d is recessive to the wild type allele D. A gene test can be used to determine a dog's genotype concerning genes for pigmentation. In some dog breeds lightened by the dilute gene, the mutation d is associated with color dilution alopecia (CDA). Since not all breeds in which the gene occurs exhibit these problems, it is suspected ...

  4. Dog coat genetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_coat_genetics

    Research indicates that the majority of variation in coat growth pattern, length and curl can be attributed to mutations in four genes, the R-spondin-2 gene or RSPO2, the fibroblast growth factor-5 gene or FGF5, the keratin-71 gene or KRT71 [15] and the melanocortin 5 receptor gene (MC5R). The wild-type coat in dogs is short, double and straight.

    Gene therapy was to restore some of the sight of mice with achromatopsia. The results were positive for 80% of the mice treated. [7] In 2010, gene therapy for a form of achromatopsia was performed in dogs. Cone function and day vision have been restored for at least 33 months in two young dogs with achromatopsia.

  9. Liver (color) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_(color)

    In dogs, the Liver color is caused by dilution of the eumelanin (black) pigment by the B locus. The gene that causes Liver is recessive, so a BB or Bb dog has normal black pigment. Only a bb dog is Liver. There are several different recessive b genes, but they all turn the coat brown. They are only distinguishable through genetic testing. [2]
