  1. A. The breed composition of each sub-population is the average breed composition of the five most representative members of the sub-population based on haplotype pattern.
  2. B. Sprint sub-populations 1 and 3 have the highest percentage of Pointer breed composition.
  3. C. Sprint sub-population 2 has the highest percentage of Saluki breed composition.
  4. D. Sprint sub-population 2 and Distance sub-population 1 have the highest Weimaraner breed composition.
  5. E. Sprint sub-population 4 has the highest percentage of Borzoi breed composition.
