***
TO HONOR OUR GREAT DANES ***
|
We
have all lost a valued and loving Great Dane
friend. An "In Memory" section has been added to
our
Veteran's Photo Gallery to honor those
Great Danes who have passed away.
Please feel free to submit a photo, include the
Great Dane’s name and owner/s name, a short
commentary, and if you wish, your email address,
so friends may contact you. You must be a member
of the GDCA or one of the Affiliate Clubs to
participate. |
NEWS
FLASH:
Dr. Keith E. Murphy at Texas A & M University
reported to the GDCACT this week that since last
reporting he has identified a marker on Chromosome
9, suggestive that one of the genes ASPA5 is a
striking candidate for the Harlequin gene.
Dr. Murphy will be providing a "Lay Summary" which
we will publish on the GDCA Web Site upon receipt.
Additionally, we will include it in the next
published Bulletin. Dr. Murphy's Manuscript has
been accepted for publication in the Journal
"Gene" under the title:
"Genome-wide linkage scan localizes the harlequin
locus in the Great Dane to Chromosome 9". Leigh
