The CanineHD Genotyping BeadChip contains more than 170,000 markers placed on the CanFam2.0 reference sequence. Illumina has developed the BeadChip in collaboration with the LUPA Consortium, which includes 22 European universities and other partners such as the Broad Institute.
Featuring highly polymorphic SNP content and providing uniform genomic coverage, the CanineHD BeadChip enables the interrogation of genetic variation in any domestic dog breed. Importantly, this BeadChip presents an average of greater than 70 markers per megabase (Mb), providing ample SNP density for robust within-breed association and copy number variation (CNV) studies.
Applications
Focused Genotyping
Focused genotyping supports a variety of applications such as candidate-gene studies in cancer, cardiovascular disease, and admixture mapping. Illumina also works closely with major animal consortia to develop genome-wide genotyping products for non-human organisms, including both animal and plant species.
