CHROMOSOMAL ANALYSIS OF CASES WITH CHIMERISM THAT CONSISTED OF NORMAL-CELLS AND CELLS WITH 1 29-TRANSLOCATION IN HOMOSEXUAL TWIN COWS AND THEIR CALVES/
Yi. Miyake et al., CHROMOSOMAL ANALYSIS OF CASES WITH CHIMERISM THAT CONSISTED OF NORMAL-CELLS AND CELLS WITH 1 29-TRANSLOCATION IN HOMOSEXUAL TWIN COWS AND THEIR CALVES/, Reproduction in domestic animals, 32(3), 1997, pp. 175-177
This communication describes cases with chimeric patterns that consist
ed of cells with 60,XX and 59,XX,t(1:29) in homosexual twin cows and a
dam having heterozygosity for 1/29 Robertsonian translocation. The ca
lves from one partner twin had 1/29 translocation only. On the other h
and, calves from another partner twin had normal cells only. From the
results obtained, it is proposed that germ cells would not migrate in
bovine freemartin syndrome.
