Chromosomal localization of six bovine microsatellite markers.
Six lambda genomic clones containing polymorphic microsatellite (MS) markers were assigned to bovine chromosomes 1, 3, 5, 7, 13 and 24 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Linkage data for four MS markers were presented earlier and linkage data for the remaining two on chromosome 7 and 24 are presented here. All assignments either orient or confirm the orientation of linkage groups relative to the centromere. A comparison of physical assignments and linkage intervals was possible on chromosome 5 (three loci, 38 cM) and 13 (two loci, 6 cM).
