abstractText | Two microsatellite-containing cosmids, clOBT361 and clOBT355 were localized to bovine R-banded chromosome 12 and 27, respectively, by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The two microsatellites were subcloned from the cosmids and named INRA209 and INRA206, respectively. Primers were designed from the sequence information and used for PCR amplification with a panel of 36 previously characterized hamster/bovine somatic cell hybrids. This allowed the assignment of the two microsatellites to bovine synteny groups U27 and U8, respectively. The result permits the conclusion that bovine synteny U27 corresponds to BTA12 and that bovine synteny group U8 corresponds to BTA27, reducing to five the number of unassigned bovine synteny groups. Furthermore, as a high level of polymorphism was revealed by the two microsatellites, they have all the required characteristics for good genetic map markers. |
