| Abstract: | The chicken progesterone receptor (cPR) gene and the ovalbumin (OA) gene, a target of cPR regulation, have been mapped via fluorescent in situ hybridization to the two largest chromosomes of the chicken karyotype. cPR is subtelomeric on the long arm of chromosome 1 and OA is on the long arm of chromosome 2, close to the centromere. A 35-kb cosmid probe for the cPR gene and two genomic fragments of 9.2 and 15 kb for the OA gene were biotin-labeled for nonradioactive localization of the two chicken loci. |
