Abstract
The chicken genetic map is becoming very de tailed. The genetic and physica l maps need to be integrated in more detail. It is important to have a cons ensus banded karo-type to permit this integration. An international committ ee met to develop a karyotype for the eight largest chromosomes and the Z a nd W chromosomes of the domestic fowl (Gallus domesticus). This map is pres ented in this report.
