African pastoralism: genetic imprints of origins and migrationsOlivier Hanotte
International Livestock Research Institute, Post Office Box 30709, Nairobi, Kenya
Science 296:336-9. 2002..The B. indicus genetic influence shows a major entry point through the Horn and the East Coast of Africa and two modes of introgression into the continent...
Addition of the microchromosome GGA25 to the chicken genome sequence assembly through radiation hybrid and genetic mappingMarine Douaud
UMR INRA ENVT Laboratoire de Génétique Cellulaire, INRA, Castanet Tolosan, 31326, France
BMC Genomics 9:129. 2008..The chrUn is composed of sequence contigs not assigned to named chromosomes. To identify and map sequence belonging to the microchromosomes we used a comparative mapping strategy, and we focused on the small linkage group E26C13...
Mapping of quantitative trait loci controlling trypanotolerance in a cross of tolerant West African N'Dama and susceptible East African Boran cattleO Hanotte
International Livestock Research Institute, P O Box 30709, Nairobi 00100, Kenya
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:7443-8. 2003..These results suggest that selection for trypanotolerance within an F2 cross between N'Dama and Boran cattle could produce a synthetic breed with higher trypanotolerance levels than currently exist in the parental breeds...
Geographic distribution and frequency of a taurine Bos taurus and an indicine Bos indicus Y specific allele amongst sub-saharan African cattle breedsO Hanotte
International Livestock Research Institute, Nairobi, Kenya
Mol Ecol 9:387-96. 2000..Human migration, phenotypic preferences by the pastoralists, adaptation to specific habitats and to specific diseases are the main factors explaining the present-day distribution of the alleles in sub-Saharan Africa...
Assessment of cattle genetic introgression into domestic yak populations using mitochondrial and microsatellite DNA markersX B Qi
International Livestock Research Institute, P O Box 30709, Nairobi 00100, Kenya
Anim Genet 41:242-52. 2010..To protect yak genetic integrity, hybridization between yak and cattle should be tightly controlled...
Genetic diversity and relationships of indigenous Kenyan camel (Camelus dromedarius) populations: implications for their classificationD N Mburu
International Livestock Research Institute ILRI, Nairobi, Kenya
Anim Genet 34:26-32. 2003..Instead, our results point to just two separate genetic entities, the Somali and a group including the Gabbra, Rendille and Turkana populations...
Targeted generation of 16 sequence-tagged sites for bovine chromosome region 5q21-q25 by microdissectionTom Goldammer
Forschungsbereich Molekularbiologie, , Wilhelm-Stahl-Allee 2, D-18196 Dummerstorf, Germany
Chromosome Res 12:309-15. 2004..Fifteen STS represent new unique cattle DNA sequences, of which one identifies a new microsatellite. Homology with the gene CDK2 was found for the remaining STS...
Conservation priorities for Ethiopian sheep breeds combining threat status, breed merits and contributions to genetic diversitySolomon Gizaw
Debre Birhan Agricultural Research Center, P O Box 112, Debre Birhan, Ethiopia
Genet Sel Evol 40:433-47. 2008..The ranking of breeds provides a basis for conservation strategies for Ethiopian sheep and contributes to a regional or global conservation plan...
Genetic and morphological characterisation of the Ankole Longhorn cattle in the African Great Lakes regionDeo B Ndumu
Department of Sustainable Agricultural Systems, BOKU University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria
Genet Sel Evol 40:467-90. 2008..Both analyses on distance-based and model-based methods consistently isolated the Mugamba sub-population in Burundi from the others...
