title: Development and use of DNA archives at veterinary teaching hospitals to investigate the genetic basis of disease in dogs.
abstract: The DNA archives developed at veterinary medical teaching hospitals will be important resources for mapping disease loci and identifying underlying genes. The most important feature of a DNA archive is accurate identification or exclusion of diseases in each animal. Such archives will be complimentary resources to tissue banks that are currently available.
