Abstract excerpt
The isolation of chicken minisatellites is reported. Two charomid libraries were constructed from fractions of size-selected MboI-digested genomic DNA. A total of 5985 colonies were screened with the multilocus probes 33.6 and 33.15; 137 positives were obtained (2.35%). A total of 55 clones were tested against four unrelated chickens; 30 revealed variable single locus patterns. More detailed characterization was...
