Extractions: March 2001 Genomics and Proteomics Physical mapping and functional analysis of chromosome IV pericentric region in Aspergillus nidulans . Alexei Aleksenko and Michael Lynge Nielsen. BioCentrum, Technical University of Denmark, Bygn. 223, Lyngby 2800 Denmark Chromosome walk between genes methG, uvsB, hisA, gdhB and frA of A. nidulans produced two continuous segments of a physical map of chromosome IV covering 250kb and 160 kb. Integration of selectable markers into the chromosome targeted by unique cosmid fragments made it possible to establish that the two fragments flank the centromere, with the order of markers methG-uvsB-CEN-hisA-gdhB-frA . The gap in the physical map over the centromere itself was estimated to be between 70 kb and 250 kb. It was shown that the frequency of meiotic recombination in the vicinity of the centromere is strongly reduced. Pericentric fragnets contain highly repetitive AT-rich DNA and degenerated retrotransposons. Centromere-proximal DNA fragments were subcloned in circular and linear vectors, and their behavior in transformation was studied. Heterologous transposition in the phytopathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis using the Caenorhabditis elegans element Tc1.

Extractions: The human locus and allele nomenclature outlined by Shows et al. (1987) will be adopted. Thus, present standard nomenclature will be converted to the new nomenclature and the new nomenclature used for naming any new identified genes. The new terminology will be much more adaptable for use in computer databases, and will appear as entered on non-graphics screens, except for italics. The Somes nomenclature should be directly convertible to the new nomenclature in many cases by the Resource Panel appointed by the Nomenclature Committee. All new names should be reviewed for duplication and standard nomenclature.

Extractions: Patenting Agriculture An intense drive to patent agricultural biotechnologies may hurt those who would benefit most: people in developing countries. More than one million children die each year because of a chronic lack of vitamin A. Millions more suffer disease. Many of these children live in developing nations where rice is the main staple. To help solve this problem, scientists have genetically engineered a variety of rice that is rich in beta carotene, an important source of vitamin A. Dubbed golden rice because of its yellow color, it could help improve millions of lives in developing countries, as well as improve the nutrition of legions of people in developed countries. But a careful study shows that anyone wanting to produce golden rice might have to secure licenses for more than 30 groups of patents issued to separate entities. These research institutions are now facing increasingly pervasive ownership of intellectual property rights. Simply to conduct research, the centers must consider the risk of infringing patents. This is a situation in which the patent system has worked to encourage private research but has at the same time greatly complicated crucial applications of the new technology. The problem goes much further than the legal scope of patents. Universities in developed nations, such as U.S. land grant universities, which are so critical to healthy U.S. agriculture and which for decades have collaborated closely with CGIAR and developing world research institutions, are themselves pursuing intellectual property rights. As a result, they may refocus their research away from developing-world needs. Furthermore, out of fear of offending their developed-world donors, the international research institutions may be hesitant to use technologies patented by private firms in those nations, even though the technologies are unpatented in the developing nations.

Sciences, Beijing, 100081 To construct a RFLP framework map of the DH population, the two parents were surveyed by 181 RFLP markers (provided by S.D. Tanksley) with eight restriction enzymes (EcoRI, EcoRV, HindIII, ScaI, XbaI, BamHI, BglII and DraI), and 171 markers showed polymorphism. All of the 8 isozyme markers examined in this cross also showed polymorphism. These results indicate that the polymorphism level is very high and a saturated genetic map can be con- structed from the segregating population derived from these parents. As the first step towards constructing a saturated map, 100 RFLP markers and 8 isozyme loci were scored on the DH population. Segregation data of genetic markers were analyzed, and a linkage map was constructed using MAP- MAKER software package developed by Lander et al. (1987). These 108 markers are distributed throughout the 12 chromosomes with mean map distance of 8.5 cM (Fig. 1). The number of markers on each chromosome ranges from three (chromosome 10) to 17 (chromosome 12). This map compares well with the latest RFLP map constructed in Tanksley's laboratory (personal communication) and lays down foundation for gene mapping with this DH population.

Your Genes, Your Choices: Exploring the Issues Raised by Genetic Research
Extractions: ABSTRACT. We have constructed a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library for a European honey bee strain using the cloning enzyme Hin filters. Screening of the library with four mapped honey bee genomic clones and two bee cDNA probes identified an average of 21 positive signals per probe, with a range of 7-38 positive signals per probe. An additional screening was performed with nine aphid gene fragments and one Drosophila gene fragment resulting in seven of the nine aphid probes and the Drosophila probe producing positive signals with a range of 1 to 122 positive signals per probe (average of 45). To evaluate the utility of the library for sequence tagged connector analysis, 1152 BAC clones were end sequenced in both forward and reverse directions, giving a total of 2061 successful reads of high quality. End sequences were queried against SWISS-PROT, insect genomic sequence GSS, insect EST, and insect transposable element databases. Results in spreadsheet format from these searches are publicly available at the Clemson University Genomics Institute (CUGI) website in a searchable format (

Extractions: Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench.) is a leading cereal in arid and semi-arid agriculture, ranking fifth in importance among the worlds grain crops (Doggett 1988). Introduced into the US about 150 years ago, sorghum is grown on 10-14 million acres with a farm-gate value of $1.3-1.6 billion/yr. Sorghum is unusually tolerant of low input levels, essential in areas such as the US Southern Plains that receive too little rainfall for other grains. Increased demand for limited fresh water supplies, coupled with global climatic trends, suggest that dryland crops such as sorghum will be of growing importance. We have made the worlds most detailed molecular map of the sorghum genome, and applied the map to gaining better understanding of many traits important to domestication and improvement of sorghum. Some present activities include: Building a physical map of sorghum that is suitable as a framework for sequencing the sorghum genome Taking advantage of the small and well-characterized sorghum genome to better understand the genomes of more complex and less well-characterized grasses such as sugarcane, bermudagrass, and buffelgrass
