Multi-Platform Next-Generation Sequencing of the Domestic Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo): Genome Assembly and Analysis

Rami A. Dalloul, +72 more
- 07 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: The combined application of next-generation sequencing platforms has provided an economical approach to unlocking the potential of the turkey genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of the chicken Toll-like receptor gene family : A story of gene gain and gene loss

TL;DR: Comparative phylogenetic analysis of vertebrate TLR genes provides insight into their patterns and processes of gene evolution, with examples of both gene gain and gene loss.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dynamics of chromosome evolution in birds and mammals.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the organization of the human genome is closer to that of the chicken than the mouse and by adding comparative mapping results from a range of vertebrates, it is identified three possible phases of chromosome evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pivotal Advance: Avian colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1), interleukin-34 (IL-34), and CSF-1 receptor genes and gene products

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that there are two separate ligands for a functional CSF1R across all vertebrates and that the two ligands interact with distinct regions of the CSF 1R.
