Breed differences in olfactory performance of dogs.

Sci Rep

January 2025

HUN-REN-ELTE Comparative Ethology Research Group, Budapest, Hungary.

Most studies on dogs' olfactory performance focused only on some individuals pre-trained for a task or on specially selected/trained detection dogs. Here, using the Natural Detection Task (NDT) that does not require training, we assessed the effect of several potential factors on the performance of a large sample of dogs (N = 527/tested, 484/analysed). Olfactory success was associated with breeds, but breed groups (selected for olfaction, cooperation, or both) were proven non-relevant, suggesting that breed-specific traits are more influential than functional breed group characteristics.

These costs are in keeping with evolutionary theory that posits large, elaborate, sexually selected traits are signals of health and vitality because stressor exposure (e.

Brain imaging genetics aims to explore the association between genetic factors such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and brain imaging quantitative traits (QTs). However, most existing methods do not consider the nonlinear correlations between genotypic and phenotypic data, as well as potential higher-order relationships among subjects when identifying bi-multivariate associations. In this paper, a novel method called deep hyper-Laplacian regularized self-representation learning based structured association analysis (DHRSAA) is proposed which can learn genotype-phenotype associations and obtain relevant biomarkers.
