“…However, subsequent and more detailed mapping studies have revealed high levels of intra-chromosomal rearrangements within them [7,10,19,34,36]. The expectations are therefore, that the number of segments of the conserved gene order will increase with the number of genes mapped in the chicken.…”

A gene-based radiation hybrid map of chicken microchromosome 14: Comparison to human and alignment to the assembled chicken sequence

-We present a gene-based RH map of the chicken microchromosome GGA14, known to have synteny conservations with human chromosomal regions HSA16p13.3 and HSA17p11.2. Microsatellite markers from the genetic map were used to check the validity of the RH map and additional markers were developed from chicken EST data to yield comparative mapping data. A high rate of intra-chromosomal rearrangements was detected by comparison to the assembled human sequence. Finally, the alignment of the RH map to the assembled chicken sequence showed a small number of discordances, most of which involved the same region of the chromosome spanning between 40.5 and 75.9 cR 6000 on the RH map.chicken / comparative mapping / radiation hybrids / microchromosome 14 / intrachromosomal rearrangement

“…The number of conserved segments between chicken and man may only be approximately 150, of which 100 have already been defined (Schmid et al 2000). Recently, high-resolution comparative maps between chicken and specific human chromosomes (Crooijmans et al 2001;Buitenhuis et al 2002;Jennen et al 2002; have increased this estimate by 30% to about 200. This estimate is about the same as that found between mouse and man; however, the chicken diverged from a common ancestor with mammals 310 × 10 6 years ago.…”

fax +44 131 440 0434, email Dave. Burt@bbsrc.ac.uk Chicken genomics has benefited from the rapid technological advances in the genomics of model organisms and man. A number of resources and approaches are now well established, in the chicken, including genetic markers and maps (both genetic and physical), quantitative trait loci mapping, comparative mapping, expressed sequence tag and bacterial artificial chromosome resources, and physical mapping. In addition, the next phase of gene discovery, functional genomics, is underway. Progress in mapping quantitative trait loci for growth and fatness traits will be discussed, as an application of these new technologies and approaches in the study of avian physiology and genetics. RésuméLa génomique de la volaille a bénéficié des avancements technologiques rapides acquis en génomique humaine et sur les organismes modèles. Certains outils et certains approches sont maintenant bien établis chez le poulet, y compris les cartes et marqueurs (génétiques comme physiques), mapping loci pour caractères quantitatifs, mapping comparative, ressources expressed sequence tag et bacterial artificial chromosome, et mapping physique. De plus, la phase suivante de la découverte génétique, la génomique fonctionnelle, est en cours. Les progrès dans le mapping de loci pour caractères quantitatifs de croissance et d'adiposité seront discutés pour illustrer ces nouvelles technologies et ces nouvelles approches dans l'étude de la génétique et de la physiologie avicole.

“…It's inevitable that as improved genetic maps and, especially, physical maps are obtained, the number of rearrangements that can be detected between these two genomes is increasing rapidly (Jennen et al, 2002;Buitenhuis et al, 2002). Still, these and other comparative maps will be immensely valuable in annotating the chicken genome and assigning likely functions to chicken genes, based on known functions of homologous genes in other species.…”

Chicken genome sequence: a centennial gift to poultry genetics

A draft sequence of the chicken genome will be available by early 2004. This event conveniently marks the start of the second century of poultry genetics, coming 100 years after the use of the chicken to demonstrate Mendelian inheritance in animals by William Bateson. How will the second, post-genomic century of poultry genetics differ from the first? A whole genome shotgun (WGS) approach is being used to obtain the chicken sequence, with the goal of generating approximately six-fold coverage of the genome. Bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) and fosmid clone end sequences, along with a BAC contig map integrated with genetic linkage and radiation hybrid maps, will form the platform for assembly of the WGS data. Rapid progress in global analysis of chicken gene expression patterns is also being made. Comparative genomics will link these new discoveries to the knowledge base for all other animal species. It’s hoped that the genome sequence will also provide common ground on which to unite studies of the chicken as a model species with those aimed at agriculturally-relevant applications. The current status of chicken genomics will be assessed with projections for its near and long term future.
