dog leucocyte antigen class ii diversity and relationships among indigenous dogs of the island nations of indonesia (bali), australia and new guinea.	the genetic polymorphism at the dog leucocyte antigen (dla) class ii loci dqa1, dqb1 and drb1 was studied in a large genetically diverse population of feral and wild-type dogs from the large island nations of indonesia (bali), australia and new guinea (bali street dog, dingo and new guinea singing dog, respectively). sequence-based typing (sbt) of the hypervariable region of dla-drb1, -dqa1 and -dqb1 alleles was used to determine genetic diversity. no new dqa1 alleles were recognized among the t ...	2006	17092255
the kintamani dog: genetic profile of an emerging breed from bali, indonesia.	the kintamani dog is an evolving breed indigenous to the kintamani region of bali. kintamani dogs cohabitate with feral bali street dogs, although folklore has the breed originating 600 years ago from a chinese chow chow. the physical and personality characteristics of the kintamani dog make it a popular pet for the balinese, and efforts are currently under way to have the dog accepted by the federation cynologique internationale as a recognized breed. to study the genetic background of the kint ...	2005	16014810
genetic variation analysis of the bali street dog using microsatellites.	approximately 800,000 primarily feral dogs live on the small island of bali. to analyze the genetic diversity in this population, forty samples were collected at random from dogs in the denpasar, bali region and tested using 31 polymorphic microsatellites. australian dingoes and 28 american kennel club breeds were compared to the bali street dog (bsd) for allelic diversity, heterozygosities, f-statistics, gst estimates, nei's da distance and phylogenetic relationships.	2005	15701179
