Animal genetics and A Guide - Resources and Review

Images of genetic maps of rats. The maps are available as viewable images, PICT and PostScript files.
 
A collaborative study aimed at producing a map of all the chromosomes in dogs. Such a map can be used to locate the genes causing disease and those controlling morphology and behaviour.
 
Information and genome databases on pigs, sheep, chicken, and cattle.
 
Catalogue of single gene mutations in turkeys. Provides colour photographs of the various phenotypic expressions of single gene mutations and other genetic conditions that have been described in turkeys which may have economic significance. Includes chromosome aberration, embryonic lethal disorders, feathers and associated structures, metabolic and neurologic disorders, plumage colours and patterns.
 
Database focusing on the comparative gene mapping between species to assist mapping of the genes related phenotypic traits in livestock. Includes linkage maps, cytogenetic maps, polymerase chain reaction primers of pig, cattle, mouse and man.
 
Includes a set of facts sheets on all aspects of UK farming intended for teachers at all levels. Topics include animal genetics and biotechnology, beef cereals, crop production, diversification, livestock, grass, horticulture, oilseeds, pigs, plant breeding, potatoes, poultry and sheep.
 
The genetic map pictures compare two different genetic maps of the mouse, while the physical map consists of over 6000 STSs derived from simple sequence length polymorphisms. Supports database searches for markers by name or position/polymorphism.
 
An index of information of interest to scientific researchers using mice or rats in their work. Includes genome informatics, nomenclature, anatomy, cell physiology, animal physiology and software.
 
Information on mouse genetic markers, molecular segments, phenotypes, comparative mapping data, experimental mapping data, and graphical displays for genetic, physical, and cytogenetic maps.
 
Provides germplasm information about plants, animals, microbes, and invertebrates within the National Genetic Resources Program of the US Department of Agriculture.
