Table 1. Variants detected by whole genome re-sequencing of an affected Eurasier.

Filtering step	Number of variants
Variants in the whole genome a	3,412,492
Variants in the critical 3.4 Mb interval on chromosome 1	6,649
Variants in the critical interval that were absent from 47 other dog genomes	150
Non-synonymous variants in the whole genome a	14,211
Non-synonymous variants in the critical 3.4 Mb interval on chromosome 1	20
Non-synonymous variants in the critical interval that were absent from 47 other dog genomes	4

^a The sequences were compared to the reference genome (CanFam 3) from a Boxer. Only homozygous variants are reported.
