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.

FP68_FP68

FP68_FP68 is labelled Village Dog French Polynesia Marquesas Hiva Oa in the Shannon cohort - a catch-all CanVAS label, not a literal ancestry call. One of 14,478 dogs who built the atlas.

About FP68_FP68

FP68_FP68 is a notable Village Dog French Polynesia Marquesas Hiva Oa - distinctive within the breed.

  • Predicted large by the six body-size genes the atlas reads (IGF1, HMGA2, SMAD2, LCORL, STC2, ADAMTS17).
  • Carries one copy of the FGF4 chondrodysplasia retrogene.
  • Wire-coat furnishings - the eyebrow + beard variant at RSPO2.

FP68_FP68's breed

FP68_FP68's genome decomposes mostly into German Shepherd, with additional weight on 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 83%
  2. Golden Retriever 17%
