Australian Terrier
Australian Terrier genetic profile from the CanVAS Atlas. 10 dogs in the Atlas, heterozygosity 0.39. Nearest relatives, trait loci frequencies, cohort distribution.
In the atlas, the Australian Terrier clusters consistently as Australian Terrier (100% of the 10 dogs here). Genetic diversity is high (mean heterozygosity 0.3924), reflecting either a mixed-breed cluster or breeds with broad genetic backgrounds. At the trait loci, FGF4_retrogene_CFA18 runs lower than average (0% here vs 77%); HMGA2 runs lower than average (0% here vs 56%).
Mean heterozygosity is 0.392, notably high, indicates broad genetic background. High breed predictability score (2.08), individual dogs of this breed reliably cluster together genetically. Only 10 dogs of this breed in the atlas, modestly sampled.
Closest genetic neighbors in the atlas: Silky Terrier, American Hairless Terrier, Bedlington Terrier, village dog Nz South, and village dog Nz North.
