About this medallion

This medallion is built from this dog's genome. The outer ring is its breed composition, a corrected ancestry decomposition, colored to match its star in the atlas. The inner gauges are the traits we predict. If an owner claims the page, their real photo can take its place.

GRLS_grlsNKM3EIZZ

GRLS_grlsNKM3EIZZ is a Golden Retriever from the GRLS research cohort. One of 18,477 dogs in the atlas.

About GRLS_grlsNKM3EIZZ

GRLS_grlsNKM3EIZZ is a strong genetic outlier within the Golden Retriever cluster - among the most distinctive examples of their breed.

  • Predicted small by the six body-size genes the atlas reads (IGF1, HMGA2, SMAD2, LCORL, STC2, ADAMTS17).
  • Standard leg length. No chondrodysplasia retrogene variant.
  • Wire-coat furnishings - the eyebrow + beard variant at RSPO2.

GRLS_grlsNKM3EIZZ's breed

GRLS_grlsNKM3EIZZ sits in the Golden Retriever cluster, with genome overlap to Labrador Retriever - sister breeds nearby in the atlas.

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.
