A Simple Polymerase Chain Reaction-based Method for the Discrimination of Three Chicken Breeds
Download2009
Mitsuhashi, T., Kubo, Y., Plastow, G.
A large number of branded chicken products exist in Japan, and in some cases, the breed of chicken is an important factor used to attract consumer interest in the retail product. In order to establish a simple method for verifying such breed claims we applied the amplified fragment length...

Quantitative trait loci affecting Rous Sarcoma Virus induced tumor regression trait in F2 intercross chickens
Download2009
Uemoto, Y., Mitsuhashi, T., Saburi, J., Miyata, T., Suzuki, K., Odawara, S., Yamashita, H., Yamamoto, R., Sato, S-I., Plastow, G., Kobayashi, E., Irina, C., Ohtake, T.
We performed a genome-wide linkage and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis to confirm the existence of QTL affecting Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) induced tumor regression, and to estimate their effects on phenotypic variance in an F2 resource population. The F2 population comprised 158 chickens...

Mitsuhashi, T., Andersson, L. , Carrion, D., Haley, C., Archibald, A., Evans, G., Plastow, G., Day, A.
We describe the characterisation of the two main coat colour determining loci (MC1R and KIT) for pigs and demonstrate how this information can be utilized for breed identification. These approaches can be useful components of quality assurance and traceability schemes which are increasingly...
