Question 1

What is GenomVx?

Accepted Answer

GenomVx is an AI-powered veterinary genomics platform that analyzes animal DNA from VCF files to identify hereditary conditions, drug sensitivities, breeding compatibility, and performance traits. It supports dogs, cats, horses, and cattle.

Question 2

Which animal species does GenomVx support?

Accepted Answer

GenomVx currently supports four species: dogs (canine), cats (feline), horses (equine), and cattle (bovine). The underlying Evo 2 model was trained on 128,000+ species, enabling cross-species variant interpretation.

Question 3

Can GenomVx detect MDR1 drug sensitivity?

Accepted Answer

Yes. GenomVx screens for MDR1 (ABCB1) variants and provides a full pharmacogenomic profile for drug sensitivities. This goes beyond single-gene tests to evaluate all variants in drug metabolism genes.

Question 4

How does breeding compatibility analysis work?

Accepted Answer

GenomVx can analyze two animal genomes (sire and dam) to assess breeding compatibility, including shared carrier status for hereditary conditions, inbreeding estimates, and offspring disease probability.
