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

Filtering stepa	Number of variants
Homozygous variants in the whole genome	3,061,192
Homozygous variants in the 1.11 Mb critical interval on chromosome 14	1,445
Private homozygous variants (absent from 191 control genomes) in critical interval	5

^a The sequences were compared to the reference genome (CanFam 3.1) from a Boxer.
