METHOD AND MATERIAL FOR CANINE BREED IDENTIFICATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods for determining the contributions of canid populations to a canid genome.SOLUTION: A method includes the steps of: (a) obtaining the identity of one or both alleles in a test canid genome for each of a set of markers; and (b) determining the contributions of canid populations to the test canid genome by comparing the alleles in the test canid genome to a database comprising canid population profiles, wherein each canid population profile comprises genotype information for the set of markers in the canid populations.
