Abstract
The chicken genetic map is becoming very detailed. The genetic and physical maps need to be integrated in more detail. It is important to have a consensus banded karotype to permit this integration. An international committee met to develop a karyotype for the eight largest chromosomes and the Z and W chromosomes of the domestic fowl (Gallus domesticus). This map is presented in this report.
