title: Mapping of the pig genome.
abstract: The past year has seen major developments in both the genetic (linkage) and physical maps of the porcine genome. Landmark loci have been established on all pig chromosomes and outline genetic maps have been elaborated. The use of pigs as models of human genetic diseases is likely to expand through the use of transgenic pigs.
