Clean Run Course Designer 3. Norsk Agility Side - AgiPro. Oppdretternes taushetsplikt. [Oversatt av Sissel J. Tjernstrøm, (N)Solstorm's og Anne-Marit Jerpstad (N)Ororina's.] Av Sierra Milton, Stormsong GSPs Mafiaen og oppdrettere Hva har de fleste moderne oppdrettere og mafiaen til felles? For et merkelig spørsmål tenker du kanskje. Grunnen for at man ikke deler genetisk informasjon med hverandre er redselen for å bli utsatt for heksejakt. årsaken ligger dog mye dypere. . * Jones var en av de første familiene som kom til Amerika og mange vil vise til at de stammer fra akkurat denne familien. Defekte gener Enda mer farlig enn denne taushetsplikten, er at man vegrer seg for å overveie at defekte gener kan eksistere innom et avlsprogram, og at de kan bli med i generasjoner og blande seg med flere blodslinjer før de gir seg til kjenne. Forenklet så kan man si at om en oppdretter ikke kan se de defekte genene så eksisterer de ikke.

Genetics

The damaged gene is inherited according to the rules of genetics, although the pattern of inheritance may not be obvious without detailed scientific study. The majority of genetic disorders afflicting pedigree dogs show a recessive pattern of inheritance. In these conditions, two copies of the damaged gene, one inherited from the sire and the other from the dam, must be present for an individual to suffer from the disease. Carriers, which have only one copy of the damaged gene, will show no symptoms but can transmit the gene to successive generations. On average, when two such carriers are mated, 25% of the offspring will be affected with the disease - but another 50% will be carriers able to pass the disease on!

DNA tests examine directly the genetic code of the damaged gene and can clearly differentiate normal, affected and carrier individuals. Dr. The NHGRI Dog Genome Project.

We are not so different, dogs and people.

Mapping the Dog

We love treats and hugs and naps; we feel better after playing outdoors; and we stick our noses where they do not belong. We are not so different when it comes to genes either. The dog genome is basically the human genome divided into about 70 different pieces and rearranged on a greater number of chromosomes, according to a new map of the dog genome. While making the map, the researchers lined up each chromosome segment in the dog with its corresponding region of the human genome. "The new map represents a real triumph," says Elaine Ostrander, of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington, who heads one of three groups behind the Dog Genome Project.

Matthew Breen at the Animal Health Trust in the U.K. and Francis Galibert at the University of Rennes in France head the other two groups in the genome project. More than 350 genetic diseases have been described, and half of these have known counterparts in humans. Kelly A. Dog genetic health. Raw Meaty Bones.
