Abstract excerpt
To serve as an initial step in developing an ideal genetic marker map for the house musk shrew, Suncus murinus, 318 comparative anchor tagged sequence (CATS) primer pairs were assessed for polymorphism ascertainment and linkage mapping. Of the 112 (35.2%) CATS primer pairs that were successfully amplified by PCR in the shrew, 18 (16.1%) showed polymorphism between two mutant strains, BAN-kc, oeb and WZ. Linkage...
