The MHC of the duck (Anas platyrhynchos) contains five differentially expressed class I genes.
MHC class I proteins mediate a variety of functions in antiviral defense. In humans and mice, three MHC class I loci each contribute one or two alleles and each can present a wide variety of peptide Ags. In contrast, many lower vertebrates appear to use a single MHC class I locus. Previously we showed that a single locus was predominantly expressed in the mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) and t...
متن کاملDescription of the mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) karyotype.
The karyotype of the mallard duck, Anas platyrhynchos, was characterised on the basis of R and C bands. Chromosomal preparations obtained from in vitro blood lymphocyte cultures were RBG- and CBG-stained. The structures of nine and 14 pairs of chromosomes were analysed by the RBG and CBG chromosome banding techniques, respectively. The location of R bands, as well as the size and arrangement of...
متن کاملA genetic and cytogenetic map for the duck (Anas platyrhynchos).
A genetic linkage map for the duck (Anas platyrhynchos) was developed within a cross between two extreme Peking duck lines by linkage analysis of 155 polymorphic microsatellite markers, including 84 novel markers reported in this study. A total of 115 microsatellite markers were placed into 19 linkage groups. The sex-averaged map spans 1353.3 cM, with an average interval distance of 15.04 cM. T...
متن کاملMalignant Melanoma in a Female Mallard Duck (Anas platyrhynchos)
Melanomas are malignant neoplasms originating from melanocytes. They reported in birds. In this case, macroscopic and microscopic (the histopathologic and IHC) findings supported a final diagnosis of cutaneous malignant melanoma in a mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos). A female mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) was observed with a mass on the ventral portion of the neck. Th...
متن کاملCaecal Development in Kuttanad Duck (Anas Platyrhynchos Domesticus)
Caecum, the largest part of duck’s intestine has an important role in liquid absorption, cellulose digestion and defensive mechanism. Age related changes in the histomorphology of the caeca in Kuttanad ducks were studied in 72 birds from day-old to adult at fortnight intervals. After recording the biometry and gross features, the material was fixed in neutral buffered formalin and standard proc...
