Coat variation in the domestic dog is governed by variants in three genes.
Coat color and type are essential characteristics of domestic dog breeds. Although the genetic basis of coat color has been well characterized, relatively little is known about the genes influencing coat growth pattern, length, and curl. We performed genome-wide association studies of more than 1000 dogs from 80 domestic breeds to identify genes associated with canine fur phenotypes. Taking adv...
متن کاملCloning and identification of the ASIP gene in Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides).
The quantity, quality, and distribution of eumelanin and pheomelanin determine a wide variety of coat colors in animals. Three coat color variants exist in farmed wild-type Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides), which is an important fur-bearing animal species. The ASIP gene is an important candidate gene for coat color variation in some species. In this study, the complet...
متن کاملIndependence of color intensity variation in red flesh apples from the number of repeat units in promoter region of the MdMYB10 gene as an allele to MdMYB1 and MdMYBA
MdMYB10 gene expression results in accumulation of anthocyanin in many tissues including flesh of applefruit. The MdMYB1 and MdMYBA genes are close homologues to MdMYB10 gene and both are responsiblefor red color phenotype in apple fruit skin. In the current study, an apple genome sequence draft analysisindicated that these three genes are located in a unique contig. Further a...

The leopard (Panthera pardus) as an adaptable felid widely distributed in varied ecosystems of Iran. The Golestan Natural Park is one of the main habitats of leopard in the country. It has divers diet and preying various types of preys such as wild ungulate and livestock. The prey remains’ samples of leopard were collected and preserved using ethanol 96% and whole genomic DNA was extracted. The...
متن کاملMitochondrial Genetic Variation in Iranian Infertile Men with Varicocele
Objective Several recent studies have shown that mitochondrial DNA mutations lead to major disabilities and premature death in carriers. More than 150 mutations in human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genes have been associated with a wide spectrum of disorders. Varicocele, one of the causes of infertility in men wherein abnormal inflexion and distension of veins of the pampiniform plexus is observe...
