Abstract
The gene clusters encoding 18S+28S and 5S rRNA in the dog (Canis famil iaris) have been localized by using GTG-banding and fluorescence in si tu hybridization. The 18S+28S rDNA maps to chromosome regions 7q2.5--> q2.7, 17q1.7, qter of a medium-sized, not yet numbered autosome, and Y q1.2 --> q1.3. Our data show that there is one cluster of 5S rDNA in t he dog, which maps to chromosome region 4q1.4.
