Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Cream dogs of several breeds require a genotype of e/e at MC1R based on 27 individuals in this study. All Akita, Caucasian Mountain Dogs, German Shepherd Dogs, Miniature Schnauzer, and Puli with this genotype are cream, suggesting they are fixed at a second locus which causes the phaeomelanin pigmentation caused by this genotype to be diluted or pale. Conversely, although all Chinese Shar-Pei and Poodles that were cream had an e/e genotype at MC1R, not all dogs with this genotype are cream. Today, many Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers with an e/e genotype are cream instead of the traditional yellow to golden color seen in the past. The second gene in these breeds must have multiple alleles, only one of which causes phaeomelanin pigment to be diluted or pale. Tyrosinase (TYR) and solute carrier family 45, member 2 (SLC45A2) have been shown to cause cream coat color in other species and were therefore investigated in dogs as candidate genes for this second locus. Although polymorphisms were detected in cDNA sequence from TYR and SLC45A2, no polymorphism was consistently associated with cream dogs or cosegregated with cream coat color in any of the families used in this study. A microsatellite was detected in a published BAC sequence (GenBank no. AAEX01017083) in intron 2 and was used to map SLC45A2 to CFA4.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
