Curly Coated Retriever
Curly Coated Retriever genetic profile from the CanVAS Atlas. 8 dogs in the Atlas, heterozygosity 0.36. Nearest relatives, trait loci frequencies, cohort distribution.
In the atlas, the Curly Coated Retriever clusters consistently as Curly Coated Retriever (100% of the 8 dogs here). Genetic diversity is high (mean heterozygosity 0.3568), reflecting either a mixed-breed cluster or breeds with broad genetic backgrounds. At the trait loci, HMGA2 runs lower than average (6% here vs 56%); FGF4_retrogene_CFA12 runs lower than average (38% here vs 80%).
Mean heterozygosity is 0.357, notably high, indicates broad genetic background. Low breed predictability score (0.18), individual dogs of this breed vary widely in genetics, suggesting active substructure or sub-population diversity. Only 8 dogs of this breed in the atlas, every individual contributes outsized weight to the breed's computed profile.
Closest genetic neighbors in the atlas: Labrador Retriever, Bouvier Des Flandres, American Eskimo Dog, Peruvian Inca Orchid, and Foxhound.
