… The location of chicken loci are shown relative to the consensus genetic linkage map (Groenen
et al., 2000) and using the current microchromosome numbering system (Fillon and …

Strategies for assembling large, complex genomes have evolved to include a combination of
whole-genome shotgun sequencing and hierarchal map-assisted sequencing 1 , 2 . Whole-…

For 10,000 years pigs and humans have shared a close and complex relationship. From
domestication to modern breeding practices, humans have shaped the genomes of domestic …

Rationale: Comorbidities contribute to disease severity and mortality in patients with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Comorbidities have been studied individually and …

Background The dissection of complex traits of economic importance to the pig industry
requires the availability of a significant number of genetic markers, such as single nucleotide …

Results: The main indication for DBE was suspected small-bowel bleeding (n= 168), and
the lesions responsible for the bleeding were found in 123 patients (73%) and treated in 61 (55…

… Crooijmans and M. Groenen, unpubl.). This has become feasible through an increased
number of loci on the linkage map and because of the development of publicly available chicken …

Domestication of wild boar (Sus scrofa) and subsequent selection have resulted in dramatic
phenotypic changes in domestic pigs for a number of traits, including behavior, body …

A synergistic combination of two next-generation sequencing platforms with a detailed
comparative BAC physical contig map provided a cost-effective assembly of the genome …
