Genetic and Physical Maps of the Mouse Genome

The genetic map pictures compare two different genetic maps of the mouse, while the physical map consists of over 6000 STSs derived from simple sequence length polymorphisms. Supports database searches for markers by name or position/polymorphism.
     Author: Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research
     Subjects: animal genetics, mice
     DeweyClass: 572.8
     Resource type: reference data

Genetic Maps of the Rat Genome

Images of genetic maps of rats. The maps are available as viewable images, PICT and PostScript files.
     Author: Massachussetts Institute of Technology Center for Genome Research

NHGRI Dog Genome Project

A collaborative project working to develop resources necessary to map and clone canine genes in an effort to utilize dogs as a model system for genetics and cancer research. Includes the most recent map of the canine genome, past versions of the map, supporting documentation for publications, and information for dog owners.

Single Gene Traits of the Turkey

Catalogue of single gene mutations in turkeys. Provides colour photographs of the various phenotypic expressions of single gene mutations and other genetic conditions that have been described in turkeys which may have economic significance. Includes chromosome aberration, embryonic lethal disorders, feathers and associated structures, metabolic and neurologic disorders, plumage colours and patterns.
