✦ Synopsis
Three polymorphisms were identified in a 1.6-kb fragment of the porcine calpastatin (CAST) gene and these polymorphisms were used for genetic linkage mapping. Linkage analysis revealed significant linkage of CAST to five microsatellites previously mapped to porcine chromosome 2; these microsatellites were S0010, S0226, SWI4, Sw395 and Sw776. A somatic cell hybrid panel was used to determine the chromosomal localization of CAST and the microsatellites S0091, S0226 and Sw395. All of these were localized to the region 2q2.1-q2.4.

Using in situ hybridisation, we have mapped APOA2 to the 1q21-1q23 region of chromosome 1. DNA hybridisation to somatic cell hybrids made from cells carrying a balanced translocation between X and 1 confirms the localisation as proximal to 1q23. This was further confirmed by the presence of two poly
The bovine gene for the p21ras protein activator (RASA) includes in its 5' untranslated region a (TG)n repeat. Analysis of this (TG)n repeat by PCR amplification of genomic DNA revealed a four-allele polymorphism. A cDNA probe was used to assign RASA to the region 2.4-qter of bovine Chromosome (Chr)
In 1955, Hall and Paige conjectured that any "nite group with a noncyclic Sylow 2-subgroup admits complete mappings. For the groups G¸(2, q), S¸(2, q), PS¸(2, q), and PG¸(2, q) this conjecture has been proved except for S¸(2, q), q odd. We prove that S¸(2, q), q,1 modulo 4 admits complete mappings.
