A preliminary search for QTLs in a cattle F2 resource populations segregating for trypanotolerance has revealed three large candidate chromosomal regions (Bta02, Bta05, Bta07). In order to narrow down the position of the trypanotolerant QTLs, we are building comparative chromosomal maps between c...

We have sought to test the possibility of detecting regions of the genome under selection through effects on variation at linked neutral genetic markers. Particularly, we investigated three genomic regions identified by mapping in a cross-bred pedigree as harbouring QTL for trypanosomiasis tolera...

An alternative approach for the direct analysis of chromosome regions corresponding to economical traits, based on chromosome microdissection, is described. Large fragment clones isolated with primer pairs designed from chromosome fragment-specific DNA sequences were localized by fluorescence in ...

The publication of the first draft chicken sequence assembly became available in 2004 and was updated in 2006. However, this does not constitute a definitive and complete sequence of the chicken genome, since the microchromosomes are notably under-represented. In an effort to develop maps for the...

Lysosomal alpha-mannosidase is involved in the metabolism of mannoses in oligosaccharides in lysosomes. Deficiency of alpha-mannosidase, alpha-mannosidosis, has been described as an autosomal recessive storage disease in angus cattle, Galloway cattle and in cats. It is caused by non-synonymous su...
Genetic markers are being used by scientists worldwide in both animal and plant related breeding and Development efforts. The International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) is a new institute formed in January 1995 by the amalgamation of the former ILCA (International Livestock Centre for Afri...
