- OptiGen Testing for Canine Multi-focal Retinopathy (CMR) in Mastiffs (retinal folds)

- CMR in Mastiffs is an autosomal recessive disease, so the gene mutation is
inherited from both sire and dam. By utilizing OptiGen's new CMR DNA
test and following their breeding recommendations, breeders can use dogs in their
breeding program regardless of the dogs' CMR genetic status and at the same time work
to eliminate the disease from the Mastiff gene pool.
