Research Abstract |
In order to investigate genetic background of temperamental individuality in dogs, we analyzed the relationship between the temperamental scores evaluated by the owners of Shiba Inu, and those by the trainers of guide dogs for blinds (Labrador Retriever) to polymorphisms of temperament-related genes. As the results, "aggression toward strangers", an important aspect of temperament, was related to a SNP on solute carrier family 1, member 2 gene in Shiba Inu and "activity" was related to the same SNP and a SNP on catecholamine-O-methyltransferase gene in Labrador Retrievers.
