Title Interaction between the X chromosome and an autosome regulates size sexual dimorphism in Portuguese Water Dogs
Date 2005
Description Size sexual dimorphism occurs in almost all mammals. In Portuguese Water Dogs, much of the difference in skeletal size between females and males is due to the interaction between a Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) on the X-chromosome and a QTL linked to Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) on the CFA 15 autosome.
