Mapping centromeres of microchromosomes in the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) using half-tetrad analysis
Centromeres usually consist of hundreds of kilobases of repetitive sequence which renders them difficult to assemble. As a consequence, centromeres are often missing from assembled genomes and their locations on physical chromosome maps have to be inferred from flanking sequences via fluorescence in...
