title: Localization of the horse (Equus caballus) alpha-globin gene complex to chromosome 13 by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
abstract: The alpha-globin gene complex in Equus caballus has been mapped by fluorescence in situ hybridization to the telomeric region of the long arm of chromosome 13. This is the first equine gene to be mapped to this chromosome.
