A second-generation linkage map of the bovine genome.
We report a bovine linkage map constructed with 1236 polymorphic DNA markers and 14
erythrocyte antigens and serum proteins. The 2990-cM map consists of a sex-specific, X …

Extensive genomic conservation of cattle microsatellite heterozygosity in sheep
We report the evaluation of 1036 bovine microsatellite primer pairs for their suitability as
linkage markers in sheep. Approximately 58%(605/1036) of bovine primer pairs amplified a …

Variable extent of hybridization between invasive sika (Cervus nippon) and native red deer (C. elaphus) in a small geographical area
Instances of hybridization between endemic and alien species pose a threat to species
integrity but also provide us with an opportunity to study the dynamics of gene flow between …

Bovine microsatellite loci are highly conserved in red deer (Cervus elaphus), sika deer (Cervus nippon) and Soay sheep (Ovis aries)
We tested 174 bovine microsatellite primer pairs for use in a primitive breed of sheep and
two species of deer. Of 173 markers, 127 (73· 4%) gave a product in Soay sheep (Ovis aries) …

Genetic structure of, and hybridisation between, red (Cervus elaphus) and sika (Cervus nippon) deer in Ireland
This study investigated the levels of genetic diversity and variation exhibited by red and sika
deer in Ireland, along with the extent and regional location of hybridisation between these …

The sacred deer conflict of management after a 1000‐year history: Hunting in the name of conservation or loss of their genetic identity
Human–wildlife conflict involves diverse stakeholders with conflicting values. Resolving
such conflicts necessitates the development of management plans rooted in scientific …

A historic religious sanctuary may have preserved ancestral genetics of Japanese sika deer (Cervus nippon)
Deer have been a major resource for human populations for thousands of years.
Anthropogenic activities, such as hunting, have influenced the genetic structure and …

Evaluation of the ovine callipyge locus: I. Relative chromosomal position and gene action
Genotypic and phenotypic data were collected to estimate chromosomal position of the
callipyge (CLPG) gene and to test gene action. Nine Dorset rams of extreme muscling …
