Genetics of dog color and coat
29.99 €
The genetics of dog color and coat continue to be of interest to dog breeders. In recent years, many new materials have been published on molecular genetic research, some of which, to varying degrees, challenge previous understanding of the formation of certain coat colors. Much new information also concerns the genetics of coat color.
This publication, authored by a renowned cynologist and PhD candidate in biology, who has been studying this topic for many years, presents extensive information based on both classical sources and modern genetic research conducted during the international Canine Genome Project.
In this book, you will find detailed answers to the following questions:
- What is coat color, what pigments are involved in its formation, and how are they synthesized in the dog's body?
- What genetic factors control the formation of particular coat colors, and how do they interact with each other?
- What genetic factors are responsible for the formation of dog coat types? What coat and pigmentation abnormalities have been described in dogs, and how are they related to the dog's health?
This book is intended for a wide range of readers, including professional dog handlers and veterinarians, as well as amateur dog owners.
