  • In parentheses are the number of haplotypes shared. The numbers of chromosomes and haplotypes for all 10 regions are added together, so, for example, the total of 400 chromosomes for four of the breeds comes from 40 chromosomes (20 dogs) assayed at each of 10 regions. Thirty-four chromosomes were assayed in Akita. Breeds: (AK) Akita; (BM) Bernese Mountain Dog; (GR) Golden Retriever; (LB) Labrador Retriever; (PK) Pekingese.
