OMIA:000817-9615 : Portosystemic shunt in Canis lupus familiaris (dog)

In other species: domestic cat , lion , horse , pig , taurine cattle , Amur tiger

Categories: Haematopoietic system phene

Links to possible relevant human trait(s) and/or gene(s) in OMIM: 601466 (trait)

Mendelian trait/disorder: no

Mode of inheritance: Multifactorial

Disease-related: yes

Key variant known: no

Inheritance: From a pedigree analysis on extra-hepatic shunts in the Maltese breed, involving 19 affecteds, 94 confirmed normals, and a further 186 related dogs with unknown shunt status (including affecteds and normals involved in, and produced from, eight planned matings), O'Leary et al. (2014) estimated heritability on the binary scale to be 61%, which is equivalent to 9% on the underlying liability scale. Segregation analysis was weakly suggestive of a single (recessive) gene of large effect, but the results of the planned matings indicated substantial departure from autosomal recessive inheritance.
