Dense genetic maps of human, mouse, and rat genomes that are based on coding genes
and on microsatellite and single-nucleotide polymorphism markers have been …

Both the production of cytokines and the distribution of immune cells within the uterus
change during early pregnancy. Evidence obtained mainly from mice indicates that these …

Coordination of the primary defense mechanisms against pathogens relies on the
appropriate expression of pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) triggering the early …

Several studies in a variety of breeds have reported at least two QTL for milk production
traits, including milk fat synthesis on bovine chromosome 6 (BTA6), comprising a region that …

Abstract β-Defensin genes code for multifunctional peptides with a broad-range
antimicrobial activity. In this project we hypothesized that β-defensin genes may be …

A bovine artificial chromosome (BAC) library of 105 984 clones has been constructed in the
vector pBeloBAC11 and organized in 3-dimension pools and high density membranes for …

Anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (ED1) is characterized by hypotrichosis, reduced number of
sweat glands, and incisior anodontia in human, mouse, and cattle. In affected humans and …

A comprehensive understanding of cancer is predicated upon knowledge of the structure of
malignant genomes underlying its many variant forms and the molecular mechanisms giving …
