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.

PFZ30C03_PFZ30C03

PFZ30C03_PFZ30C03 is labelled Village Dog Peru Ica in the Hayward2016 cohort - a catch-all CanVAS label, not a literal ancestry call. One of 14,478 dogs who built the atlas.

About PFZ30C03_PFZ30C03

PFZ30C03_PFZ30C03 is a notable Village Dog Peru Ica - distinctive within the breed.

  • Predicted giant by the six body-size genes the atlas reads (IGF1, HMGA2, SMAD2, LCORL, STC2, ADAMTS17).
  • Carries one copy of the FGF4 chondrodysplasia retrogene.
  • Carrier of the RSPO2 wire-coat variant (single copy).
PFZ30C03_PFZ30C03's breed

PFZ30C03_PFZ30C03's genome decomposes mostly into Boxer, with additional weight on German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Labrador 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. Boxer 37%
  2. German Shepherd 33%
  3. Golden Retriever 16%
  4. Labrador Retriever 15%
