A simple genetic architecture underlies morphological variation in dogs.

A simple genetic architecture underlies morphological variation in dogs.

Domestic dogs exhibit tremendous phenotypic diversity, including a greater variation in body size than any other terrestrial mammal. Here, we generate a high density map of canine genetic variation by genotyping 915 dogs from 80 domestic dog breeds, 83 wild canids, and 10 outbred African shelter dog...
