Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide sequence analysis of polymerase chain reaction products confirmed that ev21 integrated into one of two large homologous elements on the Z chromosome of late-feathering (LF) White Leghorn chickens. Southern blots of NotI-, NaeI-, KspI- and BamHI-digested DNA from early-feathering (EF) and LF White Leghorns, that had been hybridized with a probe that flanks ev21, indicated a 180 kb duplication of an...
