A genetic map of bovine Chromosome (Chr) 11 (BTA11, synteny group U16) has been constructed from 330 animals belonging to 21 families, which constitute the international bovine reference panel (IBRP). This map is based on 13 polymorphic microsatellite markers, two of which were chosen in previously

β¦ Synopsis
A male-specific genetic linkage map of nine loci on bovine Chromosome (Chr) 2 (BTA2) was constructed from 306 offspring belonging to six paternal halfsib families. Loci studied were the structural genes for liver/bone/kidney alkaline phosphatase (ALPL), Gardner-Rasheed feline sarcoma (v-fgr) oncogene homolog (FGR), alpha-L-fucosidase 1 (FUCA1), and fibronectin 1 (FN1), and the microsatellite loci AR028, DU17S2, DU17S3, D U175;4, and D U17S5. Genotyping was performed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) for structural genes and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the microsatellites. Two genetically independent linkage groups were identified. The order of genes in the first linkage group, L31, is (ARO28-FNI)-FGR-FUCA1-ALPL, covering a map distance of 34.1 cM between terminal markers. The second linkage group, L32, consists of DU17S2-DU17S5-DU17S4-DU17S3 and is 41.3 cM in length. Genetic linkage between FN1 and FGR confirms previous physical assignment of these genes to the same synteny group. Currently, the genetic linkage of FNI and FGR is unique to cattle and thus localizes a site of chromosomal evolution to a 22-cM interval between the two loci.
