Welcome to the Dog Genome Resources guide. Following the designation of dog as a high-priority genome by the National Human Genome
Research Institute (NHGRI), the Whitehead
Institute/MIT Center for Genome Research (WICGR), now the Broad Institute,
announced their project to sequence the dog genome. The effort will generate an important
resource for gene discovery, affecting canine health and biology and the growing field of
comparative genomics. This page offers a gateway to dog genome resources at NCBI and beyond.
We encourage your suggestions.
Sequencing the dog genome will facilitate the identification of genes
that may provide explanations for the vast range of mammalian variation and help
us to better understand the genetic basis of diseases common to both human and dog. The breed chosen for sequencing is the boxer, which is one of the breeds with the least variation in its genome.
