The paper investigates coat color variation in Hungarian Puli dogs and finds evidence of incomplete dominance of the Ay allele over the a allele, linked to MC1R gene variants.

The paper identifies ASIP promoter variants that determine sesame coat color in Shiba Inu dogs and demonstrates incomplete dominance between these alleles.

The paper explores the biophysics of heterochromatin-like domains/complexes, proposing a theoretical framework based on micro-phase separation and the concept of oligo-nucleosomal 'clutches'.
