Ja. Sise et al., GENETIC-LINKAGE OF PROTEOLIPID PROTEIN (PLP) AND THYROXINE-BINDING GLOBULIN (TBG) ON THE OVINE X-CHROMOSOME, Cytogenetics and cell genetics, 66(4), 1994, pp. 250-252
Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) demonstrating X-link
ed inheritance have been identified for proteolipid protein (PLP) and
thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) in sheep. Genetic linkage between ovi
ne PLP and TBG was examined in a three-generation flock containing 122
individuals. Significant linkage between the loci was observed with a
combined lod score of 7.48 at a recombination fraction of 5 cM.
