Vet Med Sci
The SOD1:c.118G>A mutation associated with canine degenerative myelopathy was identified for the first time in the Kangal Shepherd, with an allele frequency of 0.057; it was also detected in the German Shepherd at a frequency of 0.140 and in the Toy Poodle at 0.089. The mutant allele frequency in the canine population in Türkiye has been estimated at 0.
