title: Studies of the pirouette mutation. 1. Lack of linkage association with marked regions of chromosomes 1 and 2.
abstract: The pirouette mutation was tested for possible genetic linkage with naked neck, tardy feathering, the MN t(Z;1) chromosome rearrangement, all assigned to distinctly different regions of Chromosome 1, and the OH inv(2) chromosome rearrangement and shankless (associated with the OH inv(2) rearrangement). No linkage associations were found in any of these tests. This eliminates specific regions of Chromosomes 1 and 2 as possible locations for the pirouette mutation.
