A medium-density genetic linkage map of the bovine genome

Abstract: A cattle genetic linkage map was constructed which covers more than 95 percent of the bovine genome at medium density. Seven hundred and forty six DNA polymorphisms were genotyped in cattle families which comprise 347 individuals in full sibling pedigrees. Seven hundred and three of the loci are linked to at least one other locus. All linkage groups are assigned to chromosomes, and all are orientated with regards to the centromere. There is little overall difference in the lengths of the bull and cow linkage m… Show more

“…Apart from the BMS1669 microsatellite, the linear locus order of the 16 framework markers is in agreement with four linkage maps [4,9,20,23], the two RH 5 000 maps [3,18] as well as findings from physical assignments [8,19]. Except for EST BE217508, all loci that constitute the RH 12 000 framework map are members of linkage group 1 at a lod score level of 5.0 (Tab.…”

“…The other two are located on the BTA21 chromosome which contains the IGF-IR gene, HEL5 at 13 cM, AFZ1 at 75 cM and the IGF1-R locus at 0 cM from AFZ1. (Barendse et al 1997; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov; http://www. marc.usda.gov; http://www.inra.fr).…”

“…The advent of molecular markers has seen the construction of linkage maps for a variety of commercially important livestock species including cattle (Barendse et al 1997; Kappes et al 1997; Ihara et al 2004), chicken (Groenen et al 2000; Schmid et al 2000), deer (Slate et al 2002), pig (Archibald et al 1995;Rohrer et al 1996), and sheep (de Gortari et al 1998; Maddox et al 2001). The primary purpose of such linkage maps is to provide a framework to locate genes of commercial importance, either through linkage mapping or comparative analysis.…”
