“…In practice, various BAC clones are used for understanding and mapping genomes in various mammals (primates, cats, dogs, cows, pigs) (Kellner et al, 2005;Thomas et al, 2002). A certain number of molecular markers and genomic databases have been created for the duck and goose (Huang et al, 2006;Maak et al, 2003), dove (Traxler et al, 2000), budgerigar (Kamara et al, 2007), pheasant (Baratti et al, 2001), peacock (Hale et al, 2004, Hanotte et al, 1991, Japanese quail (Kayang et al, 2002;Pang et al, 1999), ostrich (Tang et al, 2003), emu (Taylor et al, 1999) and a limited number of other bird species. These tools should facilitate the construction of recombination genetic maps that have been recently successfully realized for such object as a duck (Huang et al, 2005).…”
