-- Need help understanding DNa (http://forums.ukcdogs.com/showthread.php?threadid=928524278)
Is say plenty lol
DNA profiles are just the genetic make up of that particular animal. No two profiles are the same, because each dog, even littermates, are different and will have a different signature. Like human DNA. The letters are labels and it is very interesting to see how many show up across the breeds. I study this a lot. For example: I have two littermate sisters, both DNA’d...the report is very similar, but not exact. One dog barks in the pen, one does not. Is that the difference...who knows. The DNA today is used to prove parents, because let’s say a reproducing stud dog dies or goes sterile that a person has been selling high dollar pups off of and you want that to continue...with out DNA to prove it, you could just cover those females with his brother and keep rolling. It has happened before.
Back to the original. Those letters are that dogs signature and the blanks are either non detected areas or non tested areas.
Just my thoughts.

The other problem is these letters ARE NOT GENES. They are MARKERS, not genes so the same marker can be present on a gene that means two different things because of that. Let's say it is the 3rd position on the hair gene. Well that hair gene can be both long and short and still have the 3rd position so that letter will show up on both long haired and short haired dogs because it is just a marker, not a gene. It is a position on a gene.

The simple answer is there is nothing to understand about the DNA OTHER than it proves your dog is or isn't out of what its suppose to be. You can keep track of all the dna samples you want and you will never know what they point to.

I was only trying to make it easier for him to understand the concept of the letters by "over simplifying " the lettering not the actual meaning.
And like you say a/a or A/A without knowing what they represent means nothing. Or whether they are a dominant reproducer .
Maybe it means they won't tree or prefers deer over coon.
I knew someone was going to say exactly what they did. I was actually hesitant to post because of that reason.
Don't wish to give out information that is incorrectly interpreted .
There is a lot more to it than can be written on this page. I already acknowledge there are numerous combinations per lettering and meaning. That is why I used all caps and same letters in descriptions .
I am in no way a authority on this subject.
Always say I know just enough to get in trouble.LOL.

Apreatiat everyone's input I personally don't feel that anyone has gave a bad answer? And it's great to see how many do there best to try and help and answer questions to the best of there ability. Thanks
DNA
I think they can or will soon be able to tell more about a dog by its DNA. Look at all the DNA websites for humans. They can tell everything from what region of the world your bloodline comes from. What medical issues 1 might be more likely have. They can even make a detailed picture of you, by only your DNA sample. So they can do all this with DNA but cant tell us anything about animals DNA... just my thoughts
