Localization of the Chicken Pgk Gene to Chromosome 4p by Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (1994)
Rauen, K. A., Abbott, U. K., Hutchison, N. J.
The chicken phosphoglycerate kinase (PgK) gene has been mapped to the short arm of chromosome 4 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Biotinylated probes of cloned chicken PgK DNA were hybridized to...
cDNA Cloning of a Z- and W-Linked Gene in Gallinaceous Birds (1992)
Dvorak, J., Halverson, J. L., Gulick, P., Rauen, K. A., Abbott, U. K., Kelly, B. J., ...
A cDNA library was constructed from poly(A)+ RNA isolated from turkey embryos in the third to fifth day of incubation. Ninety-two clones from the library were hybrid-ized with the genomic DNAs of...
Buhr, R. J., Abbott, U. K., Abplanalp, H., Tyler, W. S.
The sex-linked (dw) was introduced into companion muscular dystrophic (am) and nondystrophic (Am+) New Hampshire chicken lines to investigate influences of the dwarf gene on breast muscle...
Genetics of scoliosis in chickens (1981)
McCarrey, J. R., Abbott, U. K., Benson, D. R., Riggins, R. S.
The genetics of an inherited form of scoliosis in chickens was studied to estimate the number of genes involved, whether they are autosomal or sex-linked, their degree of dominance and penetrance,...
