Comparative mapping studies between human and pig have shown that there is conserved synteny between human chromosome 6 and pig chromosomes 1 and 7, but some gene locations are not well established. Prolactin (__PRL__), an anterior pituitary hormone, has been mapped to human chromosome 6, and has te
Swine chromosome 18 (SSC18) has the poorest marker density in the USDAβMARC porcine linkage map. In order to increase the marker density, seven genes from human chromosome 7 (HSA7) expected to map to SSC18 were selected for marker development. The genes selected were: growth hormone releasing hormon
