Chicken genomics charts a path to the genome sequence.
In this paper, the current status of chicken genomics is reviewed. This is timely given the current intense activity centred on sequencing the complete genome of this model species. The genome project is based on a decade of map building by genetic linkage and cytogenetic methods, which are now being replaced by high-resolution radiation hybrid and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) contig m...
متن کاملChicken Genome PROPOSAL TO ENHANCE THE SEQUENCE OF THE CHICKEN GENOME
The chicken genome (~1.2 Gb) was sequenced with NIH support in response to a White Paper (see http://genome.wustl.edu/genomes/view/gallus_gallus/ ) by the Washington U. Genome Sequencing Center (WUGSC) with the first draft sequence announced in March 2004. That draft was based on 6.6X WGS (Sanger) coverage, assembled and aligned to chromosomes using BAC end sequences and a comprehensive BAC phy...
متن کاملProposal to Sequence the Genome of the Chicken
The chicken genome has a haploid content of 1.2 x 109 base pairs (bp) of DNA; approximately 40% that of either mouse or human. The strategy that will be employed to sequence this genome is to assemble 6-fold whole-genome shotgun coverage of the genome and to order and orient the resulting sequence scaffolds by alignment to endsequences of BACs in a comprehensive contig map. This is in contrast ...
متن کاملChickVD: a sequence variation database for the chicken genome
Working in parallel with the efforts to sequence the chicken (Gallus gallus) genome, the Beijing Genomics Institute led an international team of scientists from China, USA, UK, Sweden, The Netherlands and Germany to map extensive DNA sequence variation throughout the chicken genome by sampling DNA from domestic breeds. Using the Red Jungle Fowl genome sequence as a reference, we identified 3.1 ...
