Bullmastiff
Lymphoma Study
Found a region associated with increased risk of lymphoma; risk for early onset lymphoma associated with a 1.2Mb on CFA13 containing 5 risk haplotypes and 4 candidate genes (MYC, miR=1204, miR-12-5, and miR-1206)

- 20% of population has two copies of risk region, and 55% carry one copy.
