Numbers in parentheses are the numbers of dogs tested.
aNonaffected dogs include 45 breeds not known a priori to segregate cea in addition to the cea segregating breeds already mentioned in this study. These breeds were sampled as follows: two Akitas, one Alaskan Malamute, two American Water Spaniels, two Basset Hounds, two Bearded Collies, two Bedlington Terriers, four Bernese Mountain Dogs, two Bichon Frises, two Borzois, two Boston Terriers, two Boxers, two Boykin Spaniels, two Bull Terriers, two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, one Chesapeake Bay Retriever, two Chihuahuas, one Cocker Spaniel, two Dalmatians, two English Shepherds, two English Springer Spaniels, two Field Spaniels, four Flat-coated Retrievers, two Fox Hounds, two French Bulldogs, two German Pinschers, two German Shepherd Dogs, two German Short-haired Pointers, three Golden Retrievers, two Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, two Ibizan Hounds, two Irish Water Spaniels, two Labrador Retrievers, two Miniature Bull Terriers, two Newfoundlands, two Papillons, two Portuguese Water Dogs, two Pug Dogs, four Rottweilers, two Saint Bernards, two Spinoni Italianos, two Standard Schnauzers, two Sussex Spaniels, two Weimaraners, two Welsh Springer Spaniels, and two Welsh Terriers.
bThe phase of the SNPs was not determined.
cIn the initial survey, one nonaffected Boykin Spaniel was found to carry both the deletion and the affected haplotype. This has subsequently been observed in several additional closely related Boykin Spaniels, and a cea-affected Boykin Spaniel (not included in this table) has been identified and genotyped as homozygous for the cea-associated haplotype.
