Analysis of variation in the <i>melanocortin‐4 receptor</i> gene (<i>mc4r</i>) in golden retriever dogs

Abstract

Table S1 Primer pairs used in this study. Table S2 Mc4r variants detected in 23 unrelated Golden Retrievers and prediction of their functional effects. Table S3 P-values for F-statistics where the association of each SNP or haplotype with each phenotype was tested, while correcting for sex, age and polygenic effects. Appendix S1 Experimental procedures. Appendix S2 Method of prediction of functional effects of the detected variants. Appendix S3 Preliminary analysis of variation in the canine mc4r in relation to body measures.
