## Abstract A novel mutation, __mei8__, was isolated in a forward genetic screen for infertility mutations induced by chemical mutagenesis of ES cells. Homozygous mutant mice are sterile. Mutant females exhibit ovarian dysgenesis and lack ovarian follicles at reproductive maturity. Affected males h

## BACKGROUND: The curly tail (ct) mutant mouse is one of the best-studied mouse models of spina bifida. The ct mutation has been localized to distal chromosome 4 in two independent studies and was recently postulated to be in the Grhl-3 gene. METHODS: A recombinant BALB/c-ct strain was generated
The positional cloning of genes involved in plant control of infection and nodule formation in legumes requires the development of improved tools for the analysis of large genomes and cloning of high molecular weight DNA. We have used bulked segregant analysis (BSA) and DNA amplification fingerprint
Positional cloning often requires isolation of candidate genes from a large, genetically defined region. Hybrid selection (direct cDNA selection, solution hybrid capture) is a rapid, simple procedure that has been used to identify expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from cloned genomic DNA. We used hybri
The Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an overgrowth malformation syndrome that occurs with an incidence of 1:13,700 births. There is a striking incidence of childhood tumors found in BWS patients. Various lines of investigation have localized "imprinted" genes involved in BWS and associated child
