Project description:This study used the NimbleGen dog whole genome CGH 2.1M tiling array to assay copy number variants in the dog genome in multiple breeds and wolf.
Project description:DNA methylation patterns reflect the status of individual tissues, such as cell composition, age, and the local environment in mammals. This experiment addressed the DNA methylation landscape in the dog genome across three breeds: Shiba, Dachshund (Miniature), and Poodle (Toy). A comprehensive profile of whole-genome DNA methylation from the whole blood of three dog breeds was generated using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing.
