*Interpretation of the result for the DNA test for HCM1
| N/N |
homozygote
negative |
= cat
carrying 2 normal copies of
the gene. Will not develop this form of HCM. |
| N/HCM |
heterozygote
positive |
= cat
carrying 1 normal and 1
copie of the
gene. May develop a mild and/or late form of HCM. |
| HCM/HCM |
homozygote
positive |
= cat
carrying 2 defective copies of the gene. Present high risk of
developing a severe and/or early of HCM. |
.
**Interpretation of the result for the hip dysplasia : results for the Swiss evaluation
(into brackets = results of the X-ray send to the Pawpeds programm)
| A (normal) |
good
hips, no anomalies |
| B (borderline) |
not
quite perfect structure, but not sign of
dysplasia |
| C (1) |
the
mildest form of dysplasia |
| D (2) |
moderately
affected hips |
| E (3) |
badly
affected hips |
According
to Pawpeds recommendations' the cats with the test result "C" are not
automatically excluded from breeding but should only be mated to cats
with no sign of HD = "A". The cats with the test result "D or E"
should be retired from breeding.
Naturally
each breeder has the free choice to use or not these recommendations.
.
**Interpretation of the DNA test for SMA : spinal muscular atrophy
| N/N |
homozygote
negative |
= cat
carrying 2 normal copies of
the gene. Will not develop the SMA. |
| N/SMA |
heterozygote
positive |
= cat
carrying 1 normal and 1 defective gene. Will not develop the SMA. |
| SMA/SMA |
homozygote
positive |
= cat
carrying 2 defective genes. Will develop the SMA. |
.
The
important is to marry a healthy cat (N/N) with another healthy cat
(N/N) or at least with a cat carrying 1 defective gene (N/SMA).
Thus the babies will be either N/N or N/SMA and will never develoop the
SMA.
