    Notes: [Auszug] Efforts to develop methods for the genetic modification of chickens have been driven not only by the importance of the chick as a model for studying vertebrate development but also by the intriguing possibility of producing human protein therapeutics in the eggs of transgenic hens. In a recent ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The ability of the Drosophila transposable element mariner to transpose in the chicken was tested using a plasmid carrying an active mariner element injected into chick zygotes. Surviving embryos and chicks were analyzed for presence of mariner. Analysis of embryos that survived for at least ...

    Notes: [Auszug] We have developed a method for production of transgenic chickens by DNA microinjection of chick zygotes followed by ex vivo embryo culture. The fate of plasmid DNA microinjected into the germinal disc of zygotes was analyzed in embryos which survived for at least 12 days in culture. Approximately ...

    Notes: Summary A plasmid construct containing the reporter gene,lacZ, under the control of the cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter, was injected into the germinal disc of fertilised chick ova. The distribution of cells expressing β-galactosidase was examined in the embryos after periods of from 3 h to 7 days in culture. β-galacto-sidase-positive cells were first observed at mid-cleavage (250–500 closed cells) in the centre of the blastodisc. After one day, they were prominent in large segments of the blastoderm and, at later stages, in proportionately smaller segments of the extra-embryonic membranes, notably in the endodermal layer. In the embryonic regions, positive cells were scattered in the vicinity of the primitive streak of most cultures, but after gastrulation they were present in the embryonic tissue of only 7% of surviving embryos. The results provide supportive evidence for transcriptional activity during the cleavage stages of avian development. They also confirm previous findings on the loss of exogenous DNA during the early development of the chick.

    Notes: Summary Asci showing aberrant segregation at the buff spore colour locus in Sordaria brevicollis were selected from crosses between buff mutants and wild type in the presence of closely-linked flanking markers. The frequency of crossing-over associated with aberrant segregations was calculated and corrected to allow for crossovers between the flanking markers incidental to the aberrant segregation. The average frequency of crossing over was found to be related to the class of aberrant ascus studied. 5+:3m and 3+:5m asci showed 16% associated marker recombination while 6+:2m and 2+:6m asci showed 27% recombination. The frequency of tritype and tetratype postmeiotic segregation asci was calculated. Only 3% tetratypes were found and this is thought to indicate a low frequency of symmetric hybrid DNA formation.

    Notes: We describe preliminary experiments to analyse the fate of cloned DNA microinjected into the cytoplasm of the chick fertilised ovum. The reporter gene construct pRSVcat was injected into the germinal disc before the first cleavage divison, and the chick embryos were cultured for up to 7 days using the method of Perry (Nature 331:70-72, 1988). Linear plasmid molecules ligated rapidly after injection to form highmolecular-weight DNA molecules consisting mainly of random concatemers of the injected plasmid. Recombination involving circular molecules resulted in head-to-tail multimers of the plasmid. Some of the DNA was lost after injection, but the remainder was replicated approximately 20-fold during the first 24 h of development. Between days 1 and 7 in culture, the DNA was gradually lost and diluted out as the embryos developed. By day 7 in culture plasmid DNA was detectable in only 30% of the cultures analysed. No evidence for chromosomal integration of the exogenous DNA was obtained, suggesting that the plasmid DNA persisted episomally. Expression of the reporter gene construct pRSVcat was detected in day 2 and day 7 embryos.

    Notes: Abstract The application of transgenic technology to domestic poultry offers an alternative means to conventional practice for improvement of this highly productive agricultural species. The hen's reproductive system has unique characteristics which have imposed limitations on the use of established methods for artificial gene transfer. In this article, we review the various strategies that have been adopted to overcome the problem. Target sites for gene insertion include the fertilized ovum, the blastodermal embryo in the unincubated egg, and the primordial germ cells. Notable success in obtaining somatic and germline transformation has been achieved with the use of retroviral vectors to infect the blastodermal embryo. Current attempts to introduce DNA directly into the genome, without resort to pathogen-derived vectors, are discussed.
