Novel origins of copy number variation in the dog genome

Table 1 Number of CNVs identified

	Deletions	Duplications	Both	All
Total CNV loci (complex)	226 (19)	104 (16)	100 (42)	430 (77)
Mean CNV loci per breed^a	100.5	68.5	3.4	172.4
Mean CNV loci per sample^a	77	53.8	0	130.9
Median size (kb)	19	29.5	27.8	24.3

Deletions are defined as CNV loci that only exhibit reduction in copy number relative to the reference assembly. Duplications are loci that only exhibit increased copy number. 'Both' refers to loci that exhibit both deletions and duplications. ^aBased on 15 breeds with 2 samples.
