Taigan
Taigan genetic profile from the CanVAS Atlas. 8 dogs in the Atlas, heterozygosity 0.35. Nearest relatives, trait loci frequencies, cohort distribution.
In the atlas, the Taigan clusters consistently as Taigan (100% of the 8 dogs here). Genetic diversity is high (mean heterozygosity 0.3482), reflecting either a mixed-breed cluster or breeds with broad genetic backgrounds. At the trait loci, STC2 runs lower than average (25% here vs 74%); FGF5 runs higher than the atlas average (100% here vs 64%).
Mean heterozygosity is 0.348, notably high, indicates broad genetic background. High breed predictability score (3.59), individual dogs of this breed reliably cluster together genetically. 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: Saluki, village dog Afghanistan, village dog Qatar, Afghan Hound, and village dog Egypt Luxor.
