Miniature Poodle

Miniature Poodle genetic profile from the CanVAS Atlas. 11 dogs in the Atlas, heterozygosity 0.40. Nearest relatives, trait loci frequencies, cohort distribution.

What the atlas says about Miniature Poodle

In the atlas, the Miniature Poodle clusters consistently as Miniature Poodle (100% of the 11 dogs here). Genetic diversity is high (mean heterozygosity 0.3954), reflecting either a mixed-breed cluster or breeds with broad genetic backgrounds. At the trait loci, HMGA2 runs lower than average (4% here vs 56%); FGF4_retrogene_CFA12 runs lower than average (32% here vs 80%).

Mean heterozygosity is 0.395, notably high, indicates broad genetic background. Only 11 dogs of this breed in the atlas, modestly sampled.

Closest genetic neighbors in the atlas: Irish Setter, Brittany, Bichon Frise, Schipperke, and Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen.
