e-locus genes
« on: May 30, 2013, 01:34:35 PM »
Does anyone have a suggestion on a book or source for me to learn more about e-locus genes?  It would be nice to know what you're talking about when these initials and symbols show up in posts on ABC Forum.  Thank you - Linda Ferguson

I came across a Genetics Mini-Series, on the web, by Heather Nicholson.  I read some of it and think it would be helpful in better understanding some of what we discuss here.  She sites most of the same sites that I site as "The Best Chicken Genetics Resources".

Update...
Here is very good site about chicken colors and the e-locus genes.
