Cosmic medallion portrait of DRC3_DRC3, a Village Dog Drc Kinshasa
AI portrait
About this portrait

This portrait was algorithmically built from this dog's genome: their genotype at 8 morphology loci (coat length, curl, color, ear set, body size, head shape, skull, furnishings) plus their position within the 14,478-dog atlas. The same dog always reproduces the same portrait. A different dog with different alleles gets a different portrait.

DRC3_DRC3

DRC3_DRC3 is labelled Village Dog Drc Kinshasa in the Hayward2016 cohort - a catch-all CanVAS label, not a literal ancestry call. One of 14,478 dogs who built the atlas.

About DRC3_DRC3
  • Predicted large by the six body-size genes the atlas reads (IGF1, HMGA2, SMAD2, LCORL, STC2, ADAMTS17).
  • Standard leg length. No chondrodysplasia retrogene variant.
  • Carrier of the RSPO2 wire-coat variant (single copy).
DRC3_DRC3's breed

DRC3_DRC3's genome decomposes mostly into German Shepherd, with additional weight on Belgian Shepherd, Labrador Retriever, and Golden Retriever.

Breed similarity from non-negative least squares against 91 breed centroids in PCA-256 space, corrected for atlas sample-size imbalance. Without correction, Goldens (22% of the atlas) leak into every dog's raw NNLS breakdown; with it, the bias falls out. Raw fractions stay in the dataset for re-derivation. Methodology.

  1. German Shepherd 39%
  2. Belgian Shepherd 35%
  3. Labrador Retriever 13%
  4. Golden Retriever 13%
