D. Vaiman et al., A CYTOGENETICALLY ANCHORED GENETIC-MAP OF BOVINE CHROMOSOME-1 OBTAINED BY INTEGRATING FLOW-SORTED CHROMOSOME-DERIVED MICROSATELLITE MARKERSINTO THE INTERNATIONAL BOVINE MAP, Cytogenetics and cell genetics, 79(3-4), 1997, pp. 204-207
A genomic library was constructed from a peak of flow-sorted bovine ch
romosomes 1 + X after PCR amplification. Forty-three bovine chromosome
1 microsatellites were isolated, genetically mapped and integrated in
the international genetic map. In addition, BAC clones from a goat BA
C library were identified for five markers (DVEPC119, INRA011, BM4307,
KAP8 and MAF64). These goat BACs could be mapped by FISH onto bovine
chromosome 1 to bands 1q44-->q45, 1q25, 1q21, 1q12 and 1q14-->q21, res
pectively. This map reduces the average interval between consecutive m
arkers on the international bovine genetic map from 5.5 cM to 2.5 cM,
and provides a good starting point for positional cloning projects in
cattle, sheep or goats.
