Abstract in brief
The study finds that amylase activity in dogs is linked to the number of copies of the AMY2B gene, which likely helped early dogs digest starch-rich diets.
There is wide variation in AMY2B gene copies among dog breeds and individuals, affecting their starch digestion ability; breed and individual differences are significant.
While the research did not find a direct link between AMY2B copy number and the risk of developing diabetes, larger future studies are necessary to explore this potential connection further.

That implies that humans were eating a lot of starchy foods and that dogs adapted to digest those foods.

@angelsliketay @StateOfZoey @cocobean223 @allietweets91 @katyperry Lots of animals including humans have canine teeth and are herbivores/omnivores, so they're not a good indicator of dietary requirements. Also dogs can digest starches: https://t.co/mtynA9MpP1
This video explores whether dogs need carbohydrates in their diet, focusing on genetic factors like AMY2B gene copies that influence starch digestion ability. Variations among breeds impact nutritional needs and dietary…
This video explores how gene duplication and recruitment can generate genetic innovations, using the example of amylase (starch) enzyme evolution in dogs and how their genomes adapt to dietary changes.
