In order to perform a linkage study, the genotypes of a large number of individuals from a segregating population need to be determined. In case the phenotype to be mapped is influenced by a single locus or a major gene, sampling of the DNA from individual animals with the same phenotype into a single pool (bulked segregant) can reduce the number of typings. In this study we used bulked segregant analysis in order to map the Dominant White locus in the chicken. In a pilot experiment, we showed that allele frequencies can be accurately estimated from pooled samples using fluorescently labeled microsatellite markers. A segregating population for the Dominant White locus was obtained by performing a cross between a white male chicken (Genotype li for Dominant White) and a black female chicken (ii). The resulting progeny of 21 white and 18 black chickens were divided in two pools. Genotypes for both the parents and the pools were determined using 168 fluorescently labeled microsatellite markers, of which 68 were informative. The relative allele frequencies between the pools were estimated for these 68 informative markers. One marker (MCW188) was found to segregate with the Dominant White locus. Subsequent typing of all individuals from this cross and an additional 148 animals from five different families showed only two recombinants between the marker and the Dominant White locus, resulting in a LODlinkage score (log10 of odds) of 36. Using the pooled DNA approach, the Dominant White locus was successfully mapped on linkage group 22 of the East Lansing reference family at a distance of 2 cM from MCW188.
