Canine coat color genetics

January 28, 2011 /

At the 2010 nationals there was a fun study going on to genetically map the colors of basset hounds so we signed Norman and Isabella up to help.  Dayna L. Dreger, MSc – PhD Candidate was who was researching, collecting information, and helping to evaluate the results.  This is an ongoing study but portions of this work have been accepted for publication in the Journal of Heredity, and should be out in print later this year.

 

A Basset Hound breed color summary has been posted online.

The breed website is part of a series of pages from the dog coat color genetics website of Dr. Sheila Schmutz.
